DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK OPERATION. 
  1. Depress the brake pedal (CVT model) or clutch pedal (MT model).
  2. While turning the steering wheel lightly to the left and right, press the push button ignition switch.
  3. Confirm that the steering lock is released and the engine start.
 Does the engine fail to start with the steering lock released? Perform the diagnosis for engine system. < Ref. to DIAGNOSTICS FOR ENGINE STARTING FAILURE . > < Ref. to DIAGNOSTICS FOR ENGINE STARTING FAILURE . > Go to step 2. 
2 CHECK DTC. 
Read keyless access CM (Control Module) DTCs using the Subaru Select Monitor. < Ref. to READ DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) . >		 Is a DTC displayed? Perform the diagnosis according to the corresponding procedures of DTC. Go to step 3. 
3 CHECK CURRENT DATA. 
  1. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, display the current data of the keyless access CM (Control Module) «Steering lock unlock request reception status» and «Steering lock lock/unlock command reception history». < Ref. to READ CURRENT DATA . >
  2. Read the data when the push button ignition switch is pressed while in possession of the access key. (Maintain for 10 seconds after switch operation)
 Does the data change from «Not yet received» to «Reception », and from «OFF» to «ON»? Go to step 4.  Go to step 7. 
4 CHECK STEERING LOCK CM (Control Module). 
  1. Disconnect the steering lock CM (Control Module) connector.
  2. Using a tester, measure the voltage between the steering lock CM (Control Module) connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B424) No. 7 (+) - Chassis ground (-): 

 Is the voltage 10 V or more? Go to step 5.  Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.
5 CHECK STEERING LOCK CM (Control Module). 
Using a tester, check continuity between the steering lock CM (Control Module) connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal 
(B424) No. 1 - Chassis ground: 		 Is there continuity? Go to step 6.  Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B424) No. 3 (+) - (B424) No. 1 (-): 

 Does the voltage remain 1 V or less immediately after the ignition ON? Replace the steering lock CM (Control Module). < Ref. to REMOVAL , Steering Lock CM (Control Module). > Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.
7 CHECK CURRENT DATA. 
Using the Subaru Select Monitor, display the current data of the keyless access CM (Control Module) «Code collation result between smart ECM and ID code box». < Ref. to READ CURRENT DATA . >		 Is data displayed as being normal? Go to step 9.  Go to step 8. 
8 CHECK CURRENT DATA. 
  1. Replace with a properly functioning or new ID code box. < Ref. to NOTE , ID Code Box. >
  2. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, display the current data of the keyless access CM (Control Module) «Code collation result between smart ECM and ID code box». < Ref. to READ CURRENT DATA . >
 Is data displayed as being normal? System is normal. Replace the keyless access CM (Control Module). < Ref. to KEYLESS ACCESS CM (Control Module) . >
9 CHECK CURRENT DATA. 
Using the Subaru Select Monitor, display the current data of the keyless access CM (Control Module) «Code collation result between steering locked ECM and ID code box». < Ref. to READ CURRENT DATA . >		 Is data displayed as being normal? System is normal. Go to step 10. 
10 CHECK ID CODE BOX. 
  1. Replace with a properly functioning or new ID code box. < Ref. to NOTE , ID Code Box. >
  2. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, display the current data of the keyless access CM (Control Module) «Code collation result between steering locked ECM and ID code box». < Ref. to READ CURRENT DATA . >
 Is data displayed as being normal? System is normal. Go to step 11. 
11 CHECK STEERING LOCK CM (Control Module). 
  1. Replace with a properly functioning or new steering lock CM (Control Module). < Ref. to REMOVAL , Steering Lock CM (Control Module). >
  2. After registering, the steering lock operates when the ignition is turned to OFF and the driver's door is opened and closed.
  3. Turn the ignition to ON.
  4. Operate the steering and check for whether the steering lock is released.
 Is the steering lock released, and does the engine start? Replace the steering lock CM (Control Module). < Ref. to REMOVAL , Steering Lock CM (Control Module). > Replace the keyless access CM (Control Module). < Ref. to KEYLESS ACCESS CM (Control Module) . >
