radio SUBARU LEGACY 1995 Service Repair Manual

1. Precaution

Before disassembling or reassembling parts, always
disconnect battery ground cable. When repairing
radio, control modules, etc. which are provided with
memory functions, record memory contents before
disconnecting battery ground cable. Otherwise, these
contents are cancelled upon disconnection.

Reassemble parts in reverse order of disassembly
procedure unless otherwise indicated.

Adjust parts to specifications contained in this
manual if so designated.

Connect connectors and hoses securely during
reassembly.

After reassembly, ensure functional parts operate
smoothly.
CAUTION:

Airbag system wiring harness is routed near the
electrical parts and switch.

All Airbag system wiring harness and connectors
are colored yellow. Do not use electrical test equip-
ment on these circuit.

Be careful not to damage Airbag system wiring har-
ness when servicing the ignition key cylinder.

4. Cautions
A: SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
“AIRBAG”
Airbag system wiring harness is routed near the engine
control module (ECM), main relay and fuel pump relay.
CAUTION:

All Airbag system wiring harness and connectors
are colored yellow. Do not use electrical test equip-
ment on these circuit.

Be careful not to damage Airbag system wiring har-
ness when servicing the engine control module (ECM),
transmission control module (TCM), main relay and
fuel pump relay.
B: PRECAUTIONS
1) Never connect the battery in reverse polarity.

The ECM will be destroyed instantly.

The fuel injector and other part will be damaged in just
a few minutes more.
2) Do not disconnect the battery terminals while the
engine is running.

A large counter electromotive force will be generated in
the alternator, and this voltage may damage electronic
parts such as ECM, etc.
3) Before disconnecting the connectors of each sensor
and the ECM, be sure to turn OFF the ignition switch.
4) Before removing ECM from the located position, dis-
connect two cables on battery.

Otherwise, the ECM may be damaged.
5) The connectors to each sensor in the engine compart-
ment and the harness connectors on the engine side and
body side are all designed to be waterproof. However, it is
still necessary to take care not to allow water to get into the
connectors when washing the vehicle, or when servicing
the vehicle on a rainy day.
6) Every MFI-related part is a precision part. Do not drop
them.
7) Observe the following cautions when installing a radio
in MFI equipped models.
CAUTION:

The antenna must be kept as far apart as possible
from the control unit.
(The ECM is located under the steering column, inside
of the instrument panel lower trim panel.)

The antenna feeder must be placed as far apart as
possible from the ECM and MFI harness.

Carefully adjust the antenna for correct matching.

4. Cautions

When mounting a large power type radio, pay spe-
cial attention to the three items above mentioned.

Incorrect installation of the radio may affect the
operation of the ECM.
8) 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.
9) Problems in the electronic-controlled automatic trans-
mission may be caused by failure of the engine, the elec-
tronic control system, the transmission proper, or by a com-
bination of these. These three causes must be distin-
guished clearly when performing diagnostics.
10) Diagnostics should be conducted by rotating with
simple, easy operations and proceeding to complicated,
difficult operations. The most important thing in diagnostics
is to understand the customer’s complaint, and distinguish
between the three causes.
11) In AT vehicles, do not continue the stall for more than
five seconds at a time (from closed throttle, fully open
throttle to stall engine speed).
12) On ABS or ABS/TCS vehicle, when performing driving
test in jacked-up or lifted-up position, sometimes the warn-
ing light may be lit, but this is not a malfunction of the sys-
tem. The reason for this is the speed difference between
the front and rear wheels. After diagnosis of engine control
system, perform the ABS or ABS/TCS memory clearance
procedure of self-diagnosis system. 4-4b [T6C2] or [T9K0].>
C: PRE-INSPECTION
Before performing diagnostics, check the following items
which might affect engine problems:
1. POWER SUPPLY
1) Measure battery voltage and specific gravity of electro-
lyte.
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 ground-
ing.

2. ENGINE GROUNDING
Make sure the engine grounding terminal is properly con-
nected to the engine.

7. Basic Diagnostics Procedure

5. CHECK SOURCES OF SIGNAL NOISE.
1) Check that the mobile phone, personal radio and other
wireless apparatus are correctly installed.
2) Check that the antenna and other possible noise
sources are distant enough from the sensor harness.
3) Check that the sealed wires of the front harness sensor
(in the engine room) are securely grounded.
4) Check that between ABS/TCS control module and the
rear sensor harness has the correct twist pitch.
Twist pitch:
25 mm (0.98 in) or less
6. CHECK HYDRAULIC UNIT OPERATIONS.
1) Operate the ABS sequence control and check that the
brake fluid pressure at the malfunctioning brake line
increases and decreases properly.

CAUTION:
When replacing or repairing a wire, be sure to use the
same size and type of the wire which was originally
used.
NOTE:

The allowable current in the above table indicates the
tolerable amperage of each wire at an ambient tempera-
ture of 40°C (104°F).

The allowable current changes with ambient tempera-
ture. Also, it changes if a bundle of more than two wires is
used.

9) Each unit is directly grounded to the body or indirectly
grounds through a harness ground terminal. Different sym-
bols are used in the wiring diagram to identify the two
grounding systems.
The ground points shown in the wiring diagram refer to the
following:
GBBody ground
GEEngine ground
GRRadio ground
GDRear defogger ground
All wiring harnesses are provided with a ground point which
should be securely connected.
