and connector.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following item:
• Open circuit in
harness between
ECM and front oxy-
gen (A/F) sensor
connector
• Poor contact of
coupling connector

4

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND
FRONT OXYGEN (A/F) SENSOR CONNEC-
TOR.

(E22) No. 3 (+) — Chassis ground (–):

Is the voltage 4.95 V or more?

Go to step 7.

Go to step 8.

7

CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL FOR ECM.
Measure the voltage between front oxygen (A/F)
sensor connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(E22) No. 1 (+) — Chassis ground (–):
(E22) No. 3 (+) — Chassis ground (–):

Is the voltage 8 V or more?

Repair the short
circuit to power in
the harness
between ECM and
front oxygen (A/F)
sensor connector.
After repair,
replace the ECM.
<Ref. to
FU(H4SO)-39,
Engine Control
Module (ECM).>

Repair the poor
contact of ECM
connector.

8

CHECK EXHAUST SYSTEM.

Are there holes or loose bolts
on exhaust system?

Repair the exhaust
system.

Go to step 9.

9

CHECK AIR INTAKE SYSTEM.

Are there holes, loose bolts or
disconnection of hose on air
intake system?

Repair the air
intake system.

Go to step 10.

10

CHECK FUEL PRESSURE.

WARNING:
Place “NO OPEN FLAMES” signs near the
working area.

CAUTION:
Be careful not to spill fuel.
1) Connect the front oxygen (A/F) sensor con-
nector.
2) Measure the fuel pressure. <Ref. to
ME(H4SO)-26, INSPECTION, Fuel Pressure.>

CAUTION:
Release fuel pressure before removing the
fuel pressure gauge.

Is the measured value 339.5 —
360.5 kPa (3.5 — 3.7 kg/cm

2

,

49 — 52 psi)?

Go to step 11.

Repair the follow-
ing item.
Fuel pressure is
too high:
• Clogged fuel line
or bent hose
Fuel pressure is
too low:
• Improper fuel
pump discharge
• Clogged fuel line

11

CHECK ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
SENSOR.
1) Start the engine and warm up completely.
2) Read the data of engine coolant tempera-
ture 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(H4SO)(diag)-33, Subaru Select Moni-
tor.>
• General Scan Tool
For detailed operation procedures, refer to the
general scan tool operation manual.

Is the engine coolant tempera-
ture 75°C (167°F) or higher?

Go to step 12.

Replace the
engine coolant
temperature sen-
sor. <Ref. to
FU(H4SO)-22,
Engine Coolant
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) For AT models, set the select lever to “P”
range or “N” range, and for MT models, place
the shift lever in the neutral position.
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.

NOTE:
