Transfer Clutch Pressure Test: Inspection
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Subaru Forester. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Check the transfer clutch pressure in accordance with the following chart in the same manner as for line pressure. < Ref. to LINE PRESSURE TEST . >

NOTE:
- Before setting to FWD mode, install the spare fuse on the FWD mode switch.
- If no oil pressure is produced or if it does not change in AWD mode, there may be a problem in the transfer duty solenoid or control valve body.
- If oil pressure is produced in FWD mode, there is the same problem as the AWD mode.
