E: INSPECTION
1. ARMATURE
1) Check the commutator for any sign of burns of
rough surfaces or stepped wear. If wear is of a mi-
nor nature, correct it by using sand paper.
2) Run-out test
Check the commutator run-out, and then replace if
it exceeds the limit.
Commutator run-out:
Standard
0.05 mm (0.0020 in)
Service limit
Less than 0.10 mm (0.0039 in)
3) Depth of segment mold
Check the depth of segment mold.Depth of segment mold:
0.5 mm (0.020 in)
4) Armature short-circuit test
Check the armature for short-circuit by placing it on
growler tester. Hold a iron sheet against the arma-
ture core while slowly rotating armature. A short-
circuited armature will cause the iron sheet to vi-
brate and to be attracted to core. If the iron sheet is
attracted or vibrates, the armature, which is short-
circuited, must be replaced or repaired.
5) Armature ground test
Using a circuit tester, touch one probe to the com-
mutator segment and the other to shaft. There
should be no continuity. If there is continuity, the ar-
mature is grounded.
Replace the armature if it is grounded.

2. YOKE
Make sure the pole is set in position.
3. OVERRUNNING CLUTCH
Inspect the teeth of pinion for wear and damage.
Replace if it is damaged. Rotate the pinion in direc-
tion of rotation (counterclockwise). It should rotate
smoothly. But in opposite direction, it should be
locked.
CAUTION:
Do not clean the overrunning clutch with oil to
prevent grease from flowing out.
4. BRUSH AND BRUSH HOLDER
1) Brush length
Measure the brush length, and then replace if it ex-
ceeds the service limit.
Replace if abnormal wear or cracks are noticed.
Brush length:
Standard
12.3 mm (0.484 in)
Service limit
7.0 mm (0.276 in)
2) Brush movement
Be sure the brush moves smoothly inside brush
holder.
3) Brush spring force
Measure the brush spring force with a spring scale.
If it is less than the service limit, replace the brush
holder.
Brush spring force:
Standard
15.9 — 19.5 N (1.62 — 1.99 kgf, 3.57 — 4.38
lb) (when new)
Service limit
2.5 N (0.25 kgf, 0.56 lb)
5. SWITCH ASSEMBLY
Be sure there is continuity between the terminals S
and M, and between terminal S and ground. Use a
circuit tester (set in “ohm”).
Also check to be sure there is no continuity be-
tween terminal M and B.
Terminal / Specified resistance:
S — M / Less than 1
Ω
S — Ground / Less than 1 Ω
M — B / More than 1 MΩ
6. SWITCH ASSEMBLY OPERATION
1) Connect the terminal S of switch assembly to
positive terminal of battery with a lead wire, and
starter body to ground terminal of battery. The pin-
ion should be forced endwise on shaft.
CAUTION:
With the pinion forced endwise on shaft, starter
motor can sometimes rotate because current
flows, through pull-in coil, to motor. This is not
a problem.
2) Disconnect the connector from terminal M, and
then connect the positive terminal of battery and
terminal M using a lead wire and ground terminal to
starter body.
In this test set up, the pinion should return to its
original position even when it is pulled out with a
screwdriver.

7. PINION GAP
1) Measure the pinion gap while the pinion is pulled
out as shown in the figure.
Pinion gap:
0.5 — 2.0 mm (0.020 — 0.079 in)
If the motor is running with the pinion forced end-
wise on shaft, disconnect the connector from termi-
nal M of switch assembly, and then connect
terminal M to ground terminal (−) of battery with a
lead wire. Next, gently push the pinion back with
your fingertips, and then measure the pinion gap.
2) If the pinion gap is outside specified range, re-
move or add number of adjustment washers used
on the mounting surface of switch assembly until
correct pinion gap is obtained.
8. PERFORMANCE TEST
The starter should be submitted to performance
tests whenever it has been overhauled, to assure
its satisfactory performance when installed on the
engine.
Three performance tests, no-load test, load test,
and lock test, are presented here; however, if the
load test and lock test cannot be performed, carry
out at least the no-load test.
For these performance tests, use the circuit shown
in figure.
1) No-load test
With switch on, adjust the variable resistance to ob-
tain 11 V, take the ammeter reading, and then mea-
sure the starter speed. Compare these values with
the specifications.
No-load test (Standard):
Voltage / Current
MT model
MAX. 11 V / 95 A
AT model
MAX. 11 V / 90 A
Rotating speed
MT model
2,500 rpm or more
AT model
2,000 rpm or more
2) Load test
Apply the specified braking torque to starter. The
condition is satisfactory if the current draw and
starter speed are within the specifications.
Load test (Standard):
Voltage / Load
MT model
7.5 V / 8.84 N (0.90 kgf, 1.99 lb)
AT model

General Description
 The OBD-II diagnostics procedure is different
from the usual diagnosis procedure. When trouble-
shooting the OBD-II models, connect Subaru Se-
lect Monitor or the OBD-II general scan tool to the
vehicle.
2. ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL SYS-
TEM
 MFI system is a system that supplies the opti-
mum air-fuel mixture to the engine for all the vari-
ous operating conditions through the use of the
latest electronic technology.
With this system fuel, which is pressurized at a con-
stant pressure, is injected into the intake air pas-
sage of the cylinder head. The injection quantity of
fuel is controlled by an intermittent injection system
where the electro-magnetic injection valve (fuel in-
jector) opens only for a short period of time, de-
pending on the quantity of air required for one cycle
of operation. In actual operation, the injection quan-
tity is determined by the duration of an electric sig-
nal applied to the fuel injector and this permits
simple, yet highly precise metering of the fuel.
 Further, all the operating conditions of the engine
are converted into electric signals, and this results
in additional features of the system, such as large
improved adaptability, easier addition of compen-
sating element, etc.The MFI system also has the following features:
 Reduced emission of harmful exhaust gases.
 Reduced in fuel consumption.
 Increased engine output.
 Superior acceleration and deceleration.
 Excellent engine start and warm-up perfor-
mance by the correction of engine coolant tem-
perature and intake air temperature.3. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND
ELECTRONIC-HYDRAULIC CONTROL SYS-
TEM
The electronic-hydraulic control system consists of
various sensors and switches, TCM and the hy-
draulic controller including solenoid valves. The
system controls the transmission body including
shift control, lock-up control, overrunning clutch
control, line pressure control and shift timing con-
trol. It also controls the AWD transfer clutch. In oth-
er words, the system detects various operating
conditions from various input signals and sends
output signals to shift solenoids 1, 2 and low clutch
timing solenoid and 2-4 brake timing solenoid, line
pressure duty solenoid, lock-up duty solenoid,
transfer duty solenoid and 2-4 brake duty solenoid
(a total of eight solenoids).
