Temperature Sen-
sor.>

12

CHECK MASS AIR FLOW AND INTAKE AIR
TEMPERATURE SENSOR.
1) Start the engine and warm up engine until
coolant temperature is higher than 75°C
(167°F).
2) Place the select lever in “P” range or “N”
range.
3) Turn the A/C switch to OFF.
4) Turn all the accessory switches to OFF.
5) Read the data of the mass air flow and
intake air temperature sensor signal using Sub-
aru Select Monitor or general scan tool.

For detailed operation procedure, refer to
“READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE”. <Ref.
to EN(H6DO)(diag)-34, Subaru Select Moni-
tor.>
• General Scan Tool
For detailed operation procedures, refer to the
general scan tool operation manual.

Is the measured value 2.0 —
5.0 g/s (0.26 — 0.66 lb/m)?

Go to step 13.

Replace the mass
air flow and intake
air temperature
sensor. <Ref. to
FU(H6DO)-26,
Mass Air Flow and
Intake Air Temper-
ature Sensor.>

CHECK MASS AIR FLOW AND INTAKE AIR
TEMPERATURE SENSOR.
1) Start the engine and warm up engine until
coolant temperature is higher than 75°C
(167°F).
2) Place the select lever in “P” range or “N”
range.
3) Turn the A/C switch to OFF.
4) Turn all the accessory switches to OFF.
5) Open the front hood.
6) Measure the ambient temperature.
7) Read the data of the mass air flow and
intake air temperature sensor signal using Sub-
aru Select Monitor or general scan tool.

NOTE:
• SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
For detailed operation procedure, refer to
“READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE”. <Ref.
to EN(H6DO)(diag)-34, Subaru Select Moni-
tor.>
• General Scan Tool
For detailed operation procedures, refer to the
general scan tool operation manual.

Subtract ambient temperature
from intake air temperature. Is
the obtained value –10 — 50°C
(–18 — 90°F)?

Go to step 14.

Check the mass air
flow and intake air
temperature sen-
sor. <Ref. to
FU(H6DO)-26,
Mass Air Flow and
Intake Air Temper-
ature Sensor.>

14

CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR DATA.
1) Warm up the engine until engine coolant
temperature is above 75°C (167°F), and keep
the engine speed at 3,000 rpm. (for up to 2 min-
utes)
2) Read the data of rear oxygen sensor signal
using Subaru Select Monitor or general scan
tool.

NOTE:
• SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
For detailed operation procedure, refer to
“READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE”. <Ref.
to EN(H6DO)(diag)-34, Subaru Select Moni-
tor.>
• General Scan Tool
For detailed operation procedures, refer to the
general scan tool operation manual.

Is the voltage 490 mV or more? Go to step 15.

Go to step 16.

15

CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR DATA.
1) Warm up the engine until engine coolant
temperature is above 75°C (167°F), and rapidly
reduce the engine speed from 3,000 rpm.
2) Read the data of rear oxygen sensor signal
using Subaru Select Monitor or general scan
tool.

NOTE:
• SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
For detailed operation procedure, refer to
“READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE”. <Ref.
to EN(H6DO)(diag)-34, Subaru Select Moni-
tor.>
• General Scan Tool
