My issue:
My starter is good. I just bought a new battery. I have the original key and fob. I’m not getting power out of the fuse box to the starter. I’m at a loss for what to look at now. The key and fob should rule out the imobilizer circuit. Correct?
I do have check engine light but not all o2 sensors are connected. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance
2007 Subaru Impreza 2.5i. 818c. So close to starting that it hurts.

You need the immobilizer circuit in the circuit to turn on the power relay.

Does anyone know if the Omega OL-MDB-ALL or something similar that will bypass the immobilizer circuit for the power relay on the 2007 Subaru Impreza 2.5i wiring harness?

A resolution of sorts:
Since I could not get a clear answer on this I decided to pull it apart. The 2007 Impreza 2.5i does not have an immobilized box but it has something the disables the power to the power relay. My temporary solution was to remove the power relay and use a jumper wire to bypass the relay. Once I get the wiring diagrams I’ll find and resolve the issue of the relays power.
According to omega their products will not bypass this type of issue. The fault will still inhibit the relay from getting power to close.
I hope this helps someone else.

Hi DKelly,
I haven't seen a post from you before. Welcome to the party.
Below is the pertinent part of the starting circuit. The 06 and 07 schematics are the same. PM me your email address and I will send the complete 221 page wiring diagrams.

Thanks again Bob. I started it yesterday on the first try. Now to finalizing wiring and closing everything up. First step out of the way.
