ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS)

Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)

5

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN MASS AIR
FLOW AND INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Measure the resistance of harness
between mass air flow and intake air tempera-
ture sensor and engine ground.

Connector & terminal

(B3) No. 5 — Engine ground:

Is the resistance less than 5
Ω?

Replace the mass
air flow and intake
air temperature
sensor. <Ref. to
FU(H4DOTC)-27,
Mass Air Flow and
Intake Air Temper-
ature Sensor.>

Repair the har-
ness and connec-
tor.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following:
• Open circuit in
harness between
mass air flow and
intake air tempera-
ture sensor and
ECM connector
• Poor contact in
mass air flow and
intake air tempera-
ture sensor
• Poor contact in
ECM
• Poor contact in
joint connector

1

CHECK CURRENT DATA.
1) Start the engine.
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(H4DOTC)(diag)-24, Subaru Select Mon-
itor.>
• General scan tool
For detailed operation procedure, refer to the
general scan tool operation manual.

Is the engine coolant tempera-
ture more than 120

°C (248°F)?

Go to step 2.

Repair the poor
contact.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following:
• Poor contact in
engine coolant
temperature sen-
sor
• Poor contact in
ECM
• Poor contact in
coupling connector
• Poor contact in
joint connector

2

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ENGINE
COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND
ECM CONNECTOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from engine cool-
ant temperature sensor.
3) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
4) 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(H4DOTC)(diag)-24, Subaru Select Mon-
itor.>
• General scan tool
For detailed operation procedure, refer to the
general scan tool operation manual.

Is the engine coolant tempera-
ture less than

−40°C (−40°F)?

Replace the
engine coolant
temperature sen-
sor. <Ref. to
FU(H4DOTC)-22,
Engine Coolant
Temperature Sen-
sor.>

Repair the ground
short circuit of har-
ness between
engine coolant
temperature sen-
sor and ECM con-
nector.
