if the battery was drained the alternator may have went out on you? you didn't notice the battery light on did you? anyways,charge the battery to a full charge with a battery charger,then have the charging system tested.if you have a volt meter,then you can test the battery with the car off,get readings,then start it and test the battery voltage again with engine running.engine off,battery voltage should be 12.6 vdc>>engine running,battery voltage should be 13-15 vdc.

Well, without the vehicle present for actual hands-on testing, all we can give is a best guess over the internet .. Probably need to get someone that's car savvy to help you out with testing. .. It really doesn't help for us to just post a list of possibilities that it could be.. Good luck with it! .. Post the final outcome. That may be beneficial to other Subaru owners that visit this site.
