CAUTION: Use the check board when measuring the ECM terminal voltage and resistance. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO 2.0 (EXCEPT FOR HEV))>GENERAL DESCRIPTION>PREPARATION TOOL>HOW TO USE CHECK BOARD .
NOTE: After the faulty parts are repaired or replaced, perform the final check in Basic Diagnostic Procedure. Ref. to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO 2.0 (EXCEPT FOR HEV))>BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE>PROCEDURE .
  1. CHECK SELECT CABLE  .

    Check the select cable.

    Is there any fault in select cable?

    Yes:  Repair or adjust the select cable. Ref. to CONTROL SYSTEMS>SELECT CABLE .

    No:  Go to  2.

  2. CHECK INPUT SIGNAL OF ECM  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    2. Measure the voltage between ECM and chassis ground with select lever at "P" range and "N" range.

    Connector and terminal 

    (B134) No. 39 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

    Is the voltage less than 1 V?

    Yes:  Repair the poor contact of ECM connector.

    No:  Go to  3.

  3. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND INHIBITOR SWITCH (OPEN)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
    2. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
    3. Disconnect the connector from inhibitor switch.
    4. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and inhibitor switch connector.

    (B134) No. 50 - (T7) No. 9:

    CROSSTREK MODEL 

    (B134) No. 39 - (T7) No. 5:

    (B134) No. 50 - (T7) No. 4:

    Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

    Yes:  Replace the inhibitor switch. Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR580 IMPREZA)>INHIBITOR SWITCH . Ref. to CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (TR580 CROSSTREK)>INHIBITOR SWITCH .

    No:  Repair the harness and connector.

    NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:
    • Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and inhibitor switch connector
    • Poor contact of coupling connector
