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 OIL FLOW CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE RH CONNECTOR.
|
Is the voltage less than 1 V? | Go to step 2. | Repair the short circuit to power supply in harness between ECM and oil flow control solenoid valve RH connector. |
| 2 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND OIL FLOW CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE RH CONNECTOR. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM and oil flow control solenoid valve RH connector. Connector & terminal (B134) No. 34 - (E38) No. 1: (B134) No. 27 - (E38) No. 2: |
Is the resistance less than 1 Ω? | Go to step 3. | Repair the harness and connector.
NOTE:
In this case, repair the following item:
|
| 3 CHECK OIL FLOW CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE. Measure the resistance between oil flow control solenoid valve terminals. Terminals No. 1 - No. 2: |
Is the resistance 6 - 12 Ω? | Repair the poor contact of ECM and oil flow control solenoid valve RH connector. | Replace the oil flow control solenoid valve RH. < Refer to CAMSHAFT . > |
