DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT. 
Connect the SDI (Subaru Diagnosis Interface) or general scan tool to data link connector.
Does SDI or general scan tool turn ON? Go to step . Go to step .
2 CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT. 
Measure the voltage between data link connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal 
(B40) No. 16 (+) - Chassis ground (-): 
Is the voltage 10 V or more? Go to step . Repair the power supply circuit.
NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:

  • Open or ground short circuit of harness between battery and data link connector
  • Blown out of fuse (M/B No. 13)
3 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN DATA LINK CONNECTOR AND CHASSIS GROUND. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Measure the resistance of harness between data link connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B40) No. 4 - Chassis ground: 

    (B40) No. 5 - Chassis ground: 

Is the resistance less than 5 Ω? Repair the poor contact of data link connector. Repair the harness and connector.
NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:
  • Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and data link connector
  • Open circuit of harness between ECM connector and engine ground
  • Poor contact of ECM connector
  • Poor contact of joint connector
4 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND DATA LINK CONNECTOR. 
  1. Disconnect the connectors from ECM, DCCD CM, VDC CM, airbag control module, impact sensor, TPMS & keyless entry control module, and body integrated unit.
    CAUTION: When disconnecting the connector from airbag control module, always follow the precautions on AB article. <Ref. to CAUTION , General Description.>
  2. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and data link connector.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B135) No. 14 - (B40) No. 7: 

Is the resistance less than 1 Ω? Go to step . Repair the open circuit of harness between ECM connector and data link connector.
5 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND DATA LINK CONNECTOR. 
Measure the resistance between data link connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal 
(B40) No. 7 - Chassis ground: 
Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more? Repair the poor contact of ECM connector or data link connector. Repair the short circuit to ground in harness between ECM connector and data link connector.
