7 CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN TCM AND CHASSIS GROUND. 
Measure the resistance of harness between TCM and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal 
(B54) No. 8 - Chassis ground: 
Is the resistance more than 1 MΩ? Go to step 8.  Repair the short circuit in harness between TCM and transmission connector.
8 CHECK 2-4 BRAKE DUTY SOLENOID. 
Measure the resistance between transmission connector receptacle's terminals.
Terminals 
(T4) No. 16 - No. 9: 
Is the resistance 2.0 - 4.5 Ω? Go to step 9.  Go to step 15. 
9 PREPARE SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.  Do you have a Subaru Select Monitor? Go to step 12.  Go to step 10. 
10 CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL EMITTED FROM TCM. 
  1. Connect all connectors.
  2. Start the engine and warm-up the transmission until ATF temperature is above 80°C (176°F).
    NOTE: If ambient temperature is below 0°C (32°F), drive the vehicle until ATF reaches its operating temperature.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to ON (engine OFF).
  4. Move the select lever to "N" range.
  5. Throttle fully closed.
  6. Measure the voltage between TCM connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B54) No. 8 (+) - Chassis ground (-): 

Is the voltage 1.5 - 5.0 V? Go to step 11.  Go to step 14. 
11 CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL EMITTED FROM TCM. 
  1. Throttle fully open and hold it.
  2. Measure the voltage between TCM connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B54) No. 8 (+) - Chassis ground (-): 

Is the voltage less than 1 V? Even if the AT OIL TEMP warning light blinks, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. A temporary poor contact of the connector or harness may be the cause. Repair the harness or connector in TCM and transmission. Go to step 14. 
12 CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL EMITTED FROM TCM USING SUBARU SELECT MONITOR. 
  1. Connect all connectors.
  2. Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data link connector.
  3. Start the engine and turn Subaru Select Monitor switch to ON.
  4. Warm-up the transmission until ATF temperature is above 80°C (176°F).
    NOTE: If ambient temperature is below 0°C (32°F), drive the vehicle until ATF reaches its operating temperature.
  5. Stop the engine and turn ignition switch to ON (engine OFF).
  6. Move the select lever to "N" range.
  7. Read the data of 2-4 brake duty solenoid using Subaru Select Monitor.
    • 2-4 brake duty solenoid is indicated in "%".
  8. Throttle is fully closed.
Is the value 100%? Go to step 13.  Go to step 14. 
13 CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL EMITTED FROM TCM USING SUBARU SELECT MONITOR. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (engine OFF).
  2. Throttle is fully open.
