Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
16 CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR TCM.
1) Connect the connectors to TCM, accelera-
tor pedal position sensor and ECM.
2) Turn the ignition switch to ON (engine OFF).
3) Open the throttle fully.
4) Measure the voltage between TCM con-
nector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(B55) No. 19 (+) — Chassis ground (
−):Is the voltage more than 4.6 V? Go to step 18.Even if the POWER
indicator light was
blinking, the circuit
has returned to a
normal condition at
this time. A tempo-
rary poor contact of
the connector or
harness may be the
cause. Repair the
harness or connec-
tor in accelerator
pedal position sen-
sor circuit.
17 CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR TCM USING
SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.
1) Connect the connectors to TCM, accelera-
tor pedal position sensor and ECM.
2) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data
link connector.
3) Turn the ignition switch to ON (engine OFF).
4) Turn the Subaru Select Monitor switch to ON.
5) Open the throttle fully.
6) Read the data of accelerator pedal position
sensor using Subaru Select Monitor.
 Accelerator pedal position sensor input sig-
nal is indicated.Is the voltage more than 4.6 V? Go to step 18.Even if the POWER
indicator light was
blinking, the circuit
has returned to a
normal condition at
this time. A tempo-
rary poor contact of
the connector or
harness may be the
cause. Repair the
harness or connec-
tor in accelerator
pedal position sen-
sor circuit.
18 CHECK POOR CONTACT.Is there poor contact in sensor
circuit?Repair the poor
contact.Replace the TCM.
