Detailed Description

Standard Ignition CBS-2042 is engineered for drivers who need a reliable replacement headlight dimmer switch that restores normal lighting control at the steering column. This switch manages the main lights, high-beam functions, fog light operation, and turn signal signaling in a single assembly. It is a practical OE-style replacement for Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback models from 2010-2014, with fitment noted for fog light-equipped vehicles on 2010-2014 applications.

This part cross-references Dorman (e.g., DL7442) for the same application. Standard Ignition CBS-2042 is also referenced by OE number 83195AJ06A for select Subaru applications.

What It Helps Fix

• Inoperative or intermittent headlight dimmer control
• High beams that will not latch or flash correctly
• Fog light switch operation that no longer responds at the column
• Turn signal control issues caused by a worn combination switch
• Dim, inconsistent, or failed lighting command input from the driver switch

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and vehicle equipment before installation. This switch uses a female rectangular connector, 12 blade terminals, and bolt-on attachment. Confirm whether the vehicle is equipped with fog lights when matching 2010-2014 Subaru Legacy and Subaru Outback applications. Follow factory service procedures for steering column trim removal and electrical connector handling.
