4. FREEZE FRAME DATA

NOTE:

• Data stored at the time of trouble occurrence is shown on display.

• Each time a trouble occurs, the latest information is stored in the freeze frame data in memory.

• If a freeze frame data is not properly stored in memory (due to a drop in VDCCM power supply, etc.), a

DTC suffixed with a question mark “?” appears on the Subaru Select Monitor display. This shows it may be

an unreliable reading.

5. PARAMETER SELECTION

CAUTION:

• Subaru Select Monitor is required for param-

eter selection.

• This function can be used for the replace-

ment part of VDCCM&H/U and VDCCM.
NOTE:

• When the VDCCM is replaced with a replace-

ment part, be sure to perform the parameter selec-

tion/registration to the VDCCM using this function.

• For confirmation of applied models, refer to the

“Model number plate” attached to the vehicles.

<Ref. to ID-2, IDENTIFICATION, Identification.>

• When the applied model is entered wrong, re-en-

try is possible.

• When the registration has not been performed,

the DTC code “Parameter selection error” is detect-

ed together with the ABS/EBD/VDC warning light il-

lumination.

1) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor.

2) On «Main Menu» display, select {Each System

Check}.

3) On «System Selection Menu» display, select

{Brake Control System}.

4) When {VDC} is displayed, select the [OK] button.

5) On «Brake Control Diagnosis» display, select

{Select Parameter}.

6) Check the applied model and option code indi-

cated in the “Model number plate”. <Ref. to ID-2,

IDENTIFICATION, Identification.>

7) Enter the applied model of 7-digit alphanumeric

characters and press the [Enter] key.

8) When the option code input screen appears after

entering the applied model, enter the option code

consisting of 4-digit alphanumeric characters, and

press the [Enter] key When the option code is 3 dig-

its, add “0” in front and enter the code as 4 digits.

9) When the confirmation screen indicating the ve-

hicle information appears, check that the correct

applied model and grade are displayed and click

the [OK] button.
NOTE:

When the displayed applied model and grade are

different from those of the vehicle, perform registra-

tion operations again after clicking the [OK] button.

10) Execute Clear Memory after parameter selec-

tion and registration operations because the DTC

for “Parameter selection error” is memorized.

6. PARAMETER CHECK

NOTE:

The parameter data registered in the VDCCM is

shown on the display.

1) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor.

2) On «Main Menu» display, select {Each System

Check}.

3) On «System Selection Menu» display, select

{Brake Control System}.

4) Click the [OK] button after {VDC} is displayed.

5) On «Brake Control Diagnosis» display, select

{Confirm on parameter}.

6) On the {Confirm on parameter} display screen,

check that the applied model and grade of the tar-

get vehicle are included, and click the [OK] button.

7) If the applied model and grade of the target ve-

hicle are not included on the {Confirm on parame-

ter} display screen, perform parameter selection

and registration. <Ref. to VDC(diag)-21, PARAME-

TER SELECTION, OPERATION, Subaru Select

Monitor.>
