DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

Step	Check	Yes	No
1 CHECK SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID. Forcibly activate the body integrated unit to check the operation of shift lock solenoid. Ref. to READ DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) . Move the shift lever without depressing the brake pedal.	Does the shift lever move?	Go to step 2 .	Go to step 3 .
2 CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL OF BODY INTEGRATED UNIT. Display the following items using Subaru Select Monitor. Ref. to READ CURRENT DATA . Key warning SW Shift position PSW Stop light switch With the brake pedal depressed, shift the select lever to "P" range.	Do the units of measure of items displayed change?	Go to step 3 .	Check the circuits of the items whose values do not change.
3 CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN BODY INTEGRATED UNIT AND SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID. Measure the harness resistance between the body integrated unit and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B281) No. 5 - Chassis ground:	Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?	Go to step 4 .	Repair the short circuit of harness between body integrated unit and shift lock solenoid connector.
4 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID AND CHASSIS GROUND TERMINAL. Measure the resistance of harness between shift lock solenoid connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B116) No. 4 - Chassis ground:	Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?	Go to step 5 .	Repair the open circuit of the harness between shift lock solenoid connector and chassis ground.
5 CHECK SHIFT LOCK SOLENOID. Measure the resistance between the shift lock solenoid connector terminals. Connector & terminal (B116) No. 3 - No. 4:	Is the resistance 12 - 18 Ω?	Go to step 6 .	Replace the shift lock solenoid.
6 CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL OF BODY INTEGRATED UNIT. Connect all connectors. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Set the select lever to the "D" range. Measure the voltage between body integrated unit and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B281) No. 5 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage 10.5 V or more?	Go to step 7 .	Go to step 8 .
7 CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL OF BODY INTEGRATED UNIT. Lift up the vehicle. Start the engine. Shift the select lever to "D" range and slowly increase vehicle speed to over 20 km/h (12 MPH). NOTE: The speed difference between front and rear wheels lights the ABS warning light or the VDC warning light, but this does not indicate a malfunction. If the warning light illuminates, delete the ABS or VDC memory after completing the AT control diagnosis. Ref. to CLEAR MEMORY MODE . Measure the voltage between body integrated unit and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (B281) No. 5 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage less than 1 V?	Check for poor contact of the reverse inhibitor control circuit harness or connectors, and repair the fault location.	Go to step 8 .
8 CHECK FOR POOR CONTACT.	Is there poor contact of the reverse inhibitor control circuit?	Repair the poor contact.	Replace the body integrated unit. Ref. to BODY INTEGRATED UNIT .
