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(H4SO 2.0)(diag)-25, Subaru Select
Monitor.>
• General scan tool
For detailed operation procedure, refer to the
general scan tool operation manual.

Is the engine coolant tempera-
ture more than 150

°C (302°F)?

Go to step 2.

Repair the poor
contact.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following item:
• 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(H4SO 2.0)(diag)-25, Subaru Select
Monitor.>
• 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(H4SO 2.0)-20,
Engine Coolant
Temperature Sen-
sor.>

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

1) Start the engine.
2) Read the data of engine coolant tempera-
ture sensor signal using Subaru Select Monitor
or general scan tool.

Is the engine coolant tempera-
ture less than

−40°C (−40°F)?

Go to step 2.

Repair the poor
contact.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following item:
• 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) Measure the voltage between engine cool-
ant temperature sensor connector and engine
ground.

Connector & terminal

(E8) No. 2 (+) — Engine ground (

−

):

Is the voltage more than 10 V? Repair the battery

short circuit of har-
ness between
ECM and engine
coolant tempera-
ture sensor con-
nector.

Go to step 3.

3

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ENGINE
COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND
ECM CONNECTOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Measure the voltage between engine cool-
ant temperature sensor connector and engine
ground.

Connector & terminal

(E8) No. 2 (+) — Engine ground (

−

):

Is the voltage more than 10 V? Repair the battery

short circuit of har-
ness between
ECM and engine
coolant tempera-
ture sensor con-
nector.

Go to step 4.

4

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ENGINE
COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND
ECM CONNECTOR.
Measure the voltage between engine coolant
temperature sensor connector and engine
ground.

Connector & terminal

(E8) No. 2 (+) — Engine ground (

−

):

Is the voltage more than 4 V?

Go to step 5.

Repair the har-
ness and connec-
tor.

NOTE:

the following item:
• Open circuit of
harness between
ECM and engine
coolant tempera-
ture sensor con-
nector
• Poor contact in
engine coolant
temperature sen-
sor connector
• Poor contact in
ECM connector
