Diagnostic Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Subaru Forester. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL OF ECM. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  2. Measure the voltage between ECM and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B134) No. 33 (+) - Chassis ground (-): 

 Is the voltage 10 V or more? Go to step 2.  Go to step 3. 
2 CHECK FOR POOR CONTACT. 
Check for poor contact of ECM connector.		 Is there poor contact of ECM connector? Repair the poor contact of ECM connector. Even if DTC is detected, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Reproduce the failure, and then perform the diagnosis again.
NOTE: In this case, temporary open or short circuit of harness or temporary poor contact of connector may be the cause.
3 CHECK POWER SUPPLY TO WASTEGATE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE. 
Measure the voltage between wastegate control solenoid valve connector and engine ground.
Connector & terminal 
(E64) No. 1 (+) - Engine ground (-): 		 Is the voltage 10 V or more? Go to step 4.  Repair the power supply circuit.
4 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND WASTEGATE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE CONNECTOR. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Disconnect the connectors from ECM and wastegate control solenoid valve.
  3. Measure the resistance between wastegate control solenoid valve connector and engine ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (E64) No. 2 - Engine ground: 

 Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more? Go to step 5.  Repair ground short circuit of harness between ECM and wastegate control solenoid valve connector.
5 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND WASTEGATE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE CONNECTOR. 
Measure the resistance of harness between ECM and wastegate control solenoid valve connector.
Connector & terminal 
(B134) No. 33 - (E64) No. 2: 		 Is the resistance less than 1 Ω? Go to step 6.  Repair the harness and connector.
NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:
  • Open circuit of harness between ECM and wastegate control solenoid valve connector
  • Poor contact of coupling connector
6 CHECK WASTEGATE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE. 
  1. Remove the wastegate control solenoid valve.
  2. Measure the resistance between wastegate control solenoid valve terminals.

    Terminals 

    No. 1 - No. 2: 

 Is the resistance 10 - 100 Ω? Repair poor contact of wastegate control solenoid valve connector. Replace the wastegate control solenoid valve. < Refer to WASTEGATE CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE . >
