General Description
The antenna feeder must be placed as far
apart as possible from the ECM and MFI har-
ness.
Carefully adjust the antenna for correct
matching.
When mounting a large power type radio, pay
special attention to the three items above men-
tioned.
Incorrect installation of the radio may affect
the operation of the ECM.
13) Before disconnecting the fuel hose, disconnect
the fuel pump connector and crank the engine for
more than five seconds to release pressure in the
fuel system. If engine starts during this operation,
run it until it stops.
14) Problems in the electronic-controlled automatic
transmission may be caused by failure of the en-
gine, the electronic control system, the transmis-
sion proper, or by a combination of these. These
three causes must be distinguished clearly when
performing diagnostics.
15) Diagnostics should be conducted by rotating
with simple, easy operations and proceeding to
complicated, difficult operations. The most impor-
tant thing in diagnostics is to understand the cus-
tomer’s complaint, and distinguish between the
three causes.
16) In AT models, do not continue the stall for more
than five seconds. (from closed throttle, fully open
throttle to stall engine speed.)
17) On the model with ABS, when performing driv-
ing test in jacked-up or lifted-up position, some-
times the warning light may be lit, but this is not a
malfunction of the system. The reason for this is the
speed difference between the front and rear
wheels. After diagnosis of engine control system,
perform the ABS memory clearance procedure of
self-diagnosis function.
B: INSPECTION
Before performing diagnostics, check the following
items which might affect engine problems:
1. BATTERY
1) Measure battery voltage and specific gravity of
electrolyte.
Standard voltage: 12 V
Specific gravity: Above 1.260
2) Check the condition of the main and other fuses,
and harnesses and connectors. Also check for
proper grounding.
2. ENGINE GROUND
Make sure the engine grounding terminal is proper-
ly connected to the engine.
C: NOTE
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
On-board diagnosis (OBD) system detects and
indicates a fault in various inputs and outputs of the
complex electronic control. Malfunction indicator
light in the combination meter indicates occurrence
of a fault or trouble.
Further, against such a failure or sensors as may
disable the drive, the fail-safe function is provided
to ensure the minimal driveability.
The OBD system incorporated with the vehicles
within this engine family complies with Section
1968.1, California Code of Regulations (OBD-II
regulation). The OBD system monitors the compo-
nents and the system malfunction listed in Engine
Section which affects on emissions.
When the system decides that a malfunction oc-
curs, malfunction indicator light illuminates. At the
same time of the malfunction indicator light illumi-
nation or blinking, the DTC and a freeze frame en-
gine conditions are stored into on-board computer.
The OBD system stores freeze frame engine
condition data (engine load, engine coolant tem-
perature, fuel trim, engine speed and vehicle
speed, etc.) into on-board computer when it detects
a malfunction first.
If the OBD system detects the various malfunc-
tions including the fault of fuel trim or misfire, the
OBD system first stores freeze frame engine condi-
tions about the fuel trim or misfire.
When the malfunction does not occur again for
three consecutive driving cycles, malfunction indi-
cator light is turned off, but DTC remains at on-
board computer.
The OBD-II system is capable of communication
with a general scan tool (OBD-II general scan tool)
formed by ISO 9141 CARB.

Inspection Mode
1. PREPARATION FOR THE INSPECTION
MODE
1) Check battery voltage is more than 12 V and fuel
remains half [20 — 402 (5.3 — 10.6 US gal, 4.4 —
8.8 Imp gal)].
2) Lift-up the vehicle using a garage jack and place
it on rigid racks or drive the vehicle onto free rollers.
WARNING:
Before lifting-up the vehicle, ensure parking
brakes are applied.
Do not use a pantograph jack in place of a rig-
id rack.
Secure a rope or wire to the front or rear tow-
ing hooks to prevent the lateral runout of front
wheels.
Do not abruptly depress/release clutch pedal
or accelerator pedal during works even when
the engine is operating at low speeds since this
may cause vehicle to jump off free rollers.
In order to prevent the vehicle from slipping
due to vibration, do not place any wooden
blocks or similar items between the rigid racks
and the vehicle.
Since the rear wheels will also rotate, do not
place anything near them. Also, make sure that
nobody goes in front of the vehicle.
2. SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
1) After clearing the memory, check for any remain-
ing unresolved trouble data.
2) Idle the engine.
3) Prepare the Subaru Select Monitor kit.
scription.>
4) Connect the diagnosis cable to Subaru Select
Monitor.
5) Insert the cartridge to Subaru Select Monitor.
6) Connect the test mode connector (A) located at
the lower portion of instrument panel (on the driv-
er’s side).
