DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Step	Check	Yes	No
1 CONNECT SUBARU SELECT MONITOR OR THE GENERAL SCAN TOOL, AND READ DATA. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Connect the Subaru Select Monitor or general scan tool to data link connector. Turn the ignition switch to ON, and the Subaru Select Monitor or general scan tool power switch to ON. Start the engine. Read the voltage of mass air flow sensor using Subaru Select Monitor or general scan tool. NOTE: Subaru Select Monitor For detailed operation procedure, refer to "READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE". < Ref. to LIST OF DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) . > General scan tool For detailed operation procedure, refer to the general scan tool operation manual.	Is the voltage 0.2 - 4.7 V?	Even if the malfunction indicator light illuminates, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Temporary poor contact of connector or harness may be the cause. Repair the harness or connector in mass air flow sensor. NOTE: In this case, repair the following item: Open or ground short circuit of harness between mass air flow sensor and ECM connector Poor contact of mass air flow sensor or ECM connector	Go to step 2.
2 CHECK INPUT SIGNAL OF ECM. Measure the voltage between ECM connector and chassis ground while engine is idling. Connector & terminal (B135) No. 26 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage more than 0.2 V?	Go to step 4.	Go to step 3.
3 CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR ECM (USING SUBARU SELECT MONITOR). Measure the voltage between ECM connector and chassis ground while engine is idling.	Does the voltage change by shaking the harness and connector of ECM while monitoring the value with Subaru Select Monitor?	Repair the poor contact of ECM connector.	Contact your SOA Service Center.
4 CHECK POWER SUPPLY TO MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect the connector from mass air flow sensor. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage between mass air flow sensor connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B3) No. 1 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage more than 5 V?	Go to step 5.	Repair the open circuit between mass air flow sensor and main relay.
5 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR CONNECTOR. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect the connectors from ECM. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM and mass air flow sensor connector. Connector & terminal (B135) No. 26 - (B3) No. 3: (B135) No. 34 - (B3) No. 2: (B135) No. 30 - (B3) No. 5:	Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?	Go to step 6.	Repair the open circuit between ECM and mass air flow sensor connector.
6 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR CONNECTOR. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B135) No. 26 - Chassis ground: (B135) No. 34 - Chassis ground: (B135) No. 30 - Chassis ground:	Is the resistance more than 1 MΩ?	Go to step 7.	Repair the ground short circuit between ECM and mass air flow sensor connector.
7 CHECK POOR CONTACT. Check poor contact of mass air flow sensor connector.	Is there poor contact in mass air flow sensor connector?	Repair the poor contact of mass air flow sensor connector.	Replace the mass air flow and intake air temperature sensor. < Ref. to MASS AIR FLOW AND INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR . >
