How can above problem be solved?? Looked for the cruise fuse, hoping maybe it had

Found that fuse box. No cruise fuse??? Is there one ?? Or is the fuse combined with
another.? Is even locating that fuse part of  my engine light and cruise flashing light??

Had the same problem on my 2004 Forester XT. The condition happened after hard acceleration when the turbo kicked in. I just disconnected the battery for a brief moment and that fixed the problem. It never happened again. An easy fix eh? George from Toronto

That was not a "fix". All you did was erase the trouble code that caused the light to go on. Eventually it will probably warn of the same issue.
