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 HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND KNOCK SENSOR CONNECTOR.
|
Is the resistance less than 500 kΩ? | Go to step 2. | Go to step 3. |
2 CHECK KNOCK SENSOR.
|
Is the resistance less than 500 kΩ? | Replace the knock sensor. < Refer to KNOCK SENSOR . > | Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM and knock sensor connector.
NOTE:
The harness between both connectors are shielded. Remove the shield and repair the short circuit of harness.
|
3 CHECK INPUT SIGNAL OF ECM.
|
Is the voltage 2 V or more? | 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 poor contact of connector, temporary open or short circuit of harness may be the cause.
|
Repair the poor contact of ECM connector. |
