AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (DIAGNOSTICS)

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE WITH DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)

CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL EMITTED FROM
TCM USING SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.
1) Connect all connectors.
2) Connect Subaru Select Monitor to data link

connector.

3) Start the engine, and turn Subaru Select

Monitor switch to ON.

4) Warm-up the transmission until ATF tem-

perature is above 80

°

C (176

°

F).

NOTE:

If ambient temperature is below 0

°

C (32

°

F),

drive the vehicle until the ATF reaches its oper-
ating temperature.

5) Stop the engine and turn ignition switch to

ON (engine OFF).

6) Move select lever to “N”.
7) Read data of 2-4 brake duty solenoid using

Subaru Select Monitor.

•2-4 brake duty solenoid is indicated in “%”.
8) Throttle is fully closed.

Is 2-4 brake duty solenoid data within the
specified value?

100%

Go to step 8.

Go to step 9.

CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL EMITTED FROM
TCM USING SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.
1) Turn ignition switch to ON (Engine OFF).
2) Throttle is fully open.
3) Read line pressure duty solenoid data

using Subaru Select Monitor.
Is line pressure duty solenoid data less
than the specified value?

25%

Even if “POWER”
indicator lights up,
the circuit has
returned to a nor-
mal condition at
this time. A tempo-
rary poor contact
of the connector or
harness may be
the cause. Repair
harness or con-
nector in TCM and
transmission.

Go to step 9.

9

CHECK POOR CONTACT.
Is there poor contact in 2-4 brake duty solenoid
circuit?

There is poor contact.

Repair poor con-
tact.

Replace TCM.

Transmission Con-
trol Module
(TCM).>

CHECK 2-4 BRAKE DUTY SOLENOID (IN
TRANSMISSION).
1) Remove transmission connector from

bracket.

2) Drain automatic transmission fluid.

CAUTION:

Do not drain the automatic transmission flu-
id until it cools down.

3) Remove oil pan, and disconnect connector

from 2-4 brake duty solenoid.

4) Measure resistance between 2-4 brake

duty solenoid connector and transmission
ground.

Terminal

No. 1 — Transmission ground:

Is the measured value within the specified
range?

2.0 — 4.5

Ω

Go to step 11.

Replace 2-4 brake
duty solenoid.

CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN
TRANSMISSION AND 2-4 BRAKE DUTY SO-
LENOID.
Measure resistance of harness between 2-4
brake duty solenoid and transmission connec-
tor.

Connector & terminal

(T4) No. 9 — (AT7) No. 1:

Is the measured value less than the specified
value?

1

Ω

Go to step 12.

Repair open circuit
in harness
between 2-4 brake
duty solenoid and
transmission con-
nector.

12

CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN
TRANSMISSION AND 2-4 BRAKE DUTY SO-
LENOID.
Measure resistance of harness between trans-
mission connector and transmission ground.

Connector & terminal

(T4) No. 9 — Transmission ground:

Does the measured value exceed the specified
value?

1 M

Ω

Even if “POWER”
indicator lights up,
the circuit has
returned to a nor-
mal condition at
this time. A tempo-
rary poor contact
of the connector or
harness may be
the cause. Repair
harness or con-
nector in line pres-
sure duty solenoid
and transmission.

Repair short circuit
in harness
between 2-4 brake
duty solenoid and
transmission con-
nector.
