1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connectors from TCM and
transmission.
3) Measure the resistance of harness between
TCM connector and transmission connector.

Connector & terminal

(B54) No. 27 — (B11) No. 14:

Is the resistance less than 1

:? Go to step 2.

Repair the open
circuit of harness
between TCM and
transmission con-
nector.

2

TCM AND TRANSMISSION.
Measure the resistance of harness between
TCM connector and transmission connector.

Connector & terminal

(B54) No. 16 — (B11) No. 18:

Is the resistance less than 1

:? Go to step 3.

Repair the open
circuit of harness
between TCM and
transmission con-
nector, and poor
contact of the con-
nector.

3

CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN
TCM AND TRANSMISSION.
Measure the resistance of harness between
TCM connector and transmission connector.

Connector & terminal

(B54) No. 27 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance 1 M

: or

more?

CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN
TCM AND TRANSMISSION.
Measure the resistance of harness between
TCM connector and transmission connector.

Connector & terminal

(B54) No. 16 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance 1 M

: or

more?

Go to step 5.

Repair the short
circuit of the har-
ness between
TCM and transmis-
sion connector,
and poor contact of
connector.

5

CHECK FRONT VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR.
Measure the resistance between transmission
connector receptacle’s terminals.

Connector & terminal

(T4) No. 14 — No. 18:

Is the resistance 450 — 650

:? Go to step 6.

Replace the front
vehicle speed sen-
sor. <Ref. to 4AT-
49, Front Vehicle
Speed Sensor.>

6

CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR TCM USING
SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.
1) Connect all connectors.
2) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data
link connector.
3) Lift up the vehicle.
4) Turn the ignition switch to ON and run the
Subaru Select Monitor.
5) Start the engine.
6) Read the data of “Front Wheel Speed” using
Subaru Select Monitor.
• Compare the speedometer with Subaru
Select Monitor indications.
• Vehicle speed is indicated in “km/h” or “MPH”
7) Slowly increase the vehicle speed to 60 km/
h (37 MPH).

NOTE:
The speed difference between front and rear
wheels may illuminate the ABS warning light,
but this does not indicate a malfunction. When
AT control diagnosis is finished, perform the
ABS or VDC clear memory of on-board diag-
nostics system. <Ref. to ABS(diag)-20, Clear
Memory Mode.> <Ref. to VDC(diag)-23, Clear
Memory Mode.>

Does the speedometer indica-
tion increase as the Subaru
Select Monitor front wheel
speed data increases?

Even if the ATF
temperature warn-
ing light blinks, the
circuit is in normal
condition at this
time. A temporary
poor contact of
connector or har-
ness may be the
cause. Repair the
harness in of front
vehicle speed sen-
sor circuit.

Go to step 7.

7

CHECK POOR CONTACT.

Is there poor contact in front
vehicle speed sensor circuit?

Repair the poor
contact.

Replace the TCM.
<Ref. to 4AT-61,
Transmission Con-
trol Module
(TCM).>
