Step

Check

Yes

No

1

CHECK SPARK PLUG CONDITION.
1) Remove the spark plug. <Ref. to
IG(H4DOTC)-4, REMOVAL, Spark Plug.>
2) Check the spark plug condition. <Ref. to
IG(H4DOTC)-5, INSPECTION, Spark Plug.>

Is the spark plug condition nor-
mal?

Go to step 2.

Replace the spark
plug. <Ref. to
IG(H4DOTC)-4,
Spark Plug.>

2

CHECK IGNITION SYSTEM FOR SPARKS.
1) Connect the spark plug to ignition coil.
2) Release the fuel pressure. <Ref. to
FU(H4DOTC)-57, RELEASING OF FUEL
PRESSURE, PROCEDURE, Fuel.>
3) Contact the spark plug’s thread portion to
the engine.
4) While opening the throttle valve fully, crank
the engine to check that spark occurs at each
cylinder.

Does spark occur at each cylin-
der?

Check fuel pump
system. <Ref. to
EN(H4DOTC)(diag)
-76, FUEL PUMP
CIRCUIT, Diag-
nostics for Engine
Starting Failure.>

Go to step 3.

3

CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT OF IGNI-
TION COIL.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from ignition coil.
3) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
4) Measure the voltage between ignition coil
connector and engine ground.

Connector & terminal

(E31) No. 3 (+) — Engine ground (–):
(E32) No. 3 (+) — Engine ground (–):
(E33) No. 3 (+) — Engine ground (–):
(E34) No. 3 (+) — Engine ground (–):

Is the voltage 10 V or more?

Go to step 4.

Repair the harness
and connector.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following item:
• Open harness
between ignition
coil and ignition
switch connector
• Poor contact of
coupling connector

4

CHECK HARNESS OF IGNITION COIL
GROUND CIRCUIT.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Measure the resistance of harness between
ignition coil connector and engine ground.

Connector & terminal

(E31) No. 2 — Engine ground:
(E32) No. 2 — Engine ground:
(E33) No. 2 — Engine ground:
(E34) No. 2 — Engine ground:

Is the resistance less than 5

:? Go to step 5.

Repair the harness
and connector.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following item:
• Open circuit of
harness between
ECM and ignition
coil connector
• Open circuit in
harness between
ECM and engine
ground terminal
• Poor contact of
coupling connector

5

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND IG-
NITION COIL CONNECTOR.
1) Disconnect the connectors from ECM.
2) Measure the resistance of harness between
ECM and ignition coil connector.

Connector & terminal

(B137) No. 18 — (E31) No. 1:
(B137) No. 19 — (E32) No. 1:
(B137) No. 20 — (E33) No. 1:
(B137) No. 21 — (E34) No. 1:

Is the resistance less than 1

:? Go to step 6.

Repair the harness
and connector.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following item:
• Open circuit of
harness between
ECM and ignition
coil connector
• Poor contact of
coupling connector

6

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND IG-
NITION COIL CONNECTOR.
Measure the resistance of harness between
ECM and engine ground.

Connector & terminal

(B137) No. 18 — Engine ground:
(B137) No. 19 — Engine ground:
(B137) No. 20 — Engine ground:
(B137) No. 21 — Engine ground:

Is the resistance 1 M

: or

more?

Go to step 7.

Repair the ground
short circuit of har-
ness between
ECM and ignition
coil connector.

7

CHECK POOR CONTACT.
Check for poor contact of the ECM connector.

Is there poor contact in ECM
connector?

Repair the poor
contact of ECM
connector.

Replace the igni-
tion coil. <Ref. to
IG(H4DOTC)-7,
Ignition Coil.>

E: FUEL PUMP CIRCUIT

CAUTION:
After repair or replacement of faulty parts, perform Clear Memory Mode <Ref. to EN(H4DOTC)(diag)-
52, OPERATION, Clear Memory Mode.>, and Inspection Mode <Ref. to EN(H4DOTC)(diag)-43, PRO-
CEDURE, Inspection Mode.>.

1

CHECK OPERATING SOUND OF FUEL
PUMP.
Make sure that the fuel pump operates for two
seconds when turning the ignition switch to ON.

NOTE:
Fuel pump operation can be executed using the
Subaru Select Monitor.
For the procedures, refer to “Compulsory Valve
Operation Check Mode”. <Ref. to
EN(H4DOTC)(diag)-53, Compulsory Valve Op-
eration Check Mode.>

Does the fuel pump emit oper-
ating sound?

Check the fuel
injector circuit.
<Ref. to
EN(H4DOTC)(diag)
-77, FUEL INJEC-
TOR CIRCUIT,
Diagnostics for
Engine Starting
Failure.>

Display the DTC.
<Ref. to
EN(H4DOTC)(diag)
