Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK CURRENT DATA. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  2. Read the data of fuel tank pressure sensor signal using the Subaru Select Monitor or general scan tool.
NOTE:
  • Subaru Select Monitor

    For detailed operation procedures, refer to "READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE". Refer to , SUBARU SELECT MONITOR .

  • General scan tool

    For detailed operation procedures, refer to the general scan tool operation manual.

Is the measured value 7.95 kPa (59.6 mmHg, 2.35 inHg) or more? Go to step 2.  Even if DTC is detected, the circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Reproduce the failure, and then perform the diagnosis again.
NOTE: In this case, temporary poor contact of connector, temporary open or short circuit of harness may be the cause.
2 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND FUEL TANK PRESSURE SENSOR CONNECTOR. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Disconnect the connector from the fuel tank pressure sensor.
  3. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  4. Read the data of fuel tank pressure sensor signal using the Subaru Select Monitor or general scan tool.
NOTE:
  • Subaru Select Monitor

    For detailed operation procedures, refer to "READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE". Refer to , SUBARU SELECT MONITOR .

  • General scan tool

    For detailed operation procedures, refer to the general scan tool operation manual.

Is the measured value 7.95 kPa (59.6 mmHg, 2.35 inHg) or more? Repair the short circuit to power in the harness between ECM and fuel tank pressure sensor connector. Go to step 3. 
3 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND FUEL TANK PRESSURE SENSOR CONNECTOR. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Measure the resistance of harness between fuel tank pressure sensor connector and engine ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (R47) No. 1 - Engine ground: 

Is the resistance less than 5 Ω? Go to step 4.  Repair the harness and connector.
NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:
  • Open circuit of harness between ECM and fuel tank pressure sensor connector
  • Poor contact of ECM connector
  • Poor contact of coupling connector
  • Poor contact of joint connector
4 CHECK FOR POOR CONTACT. 
Check for poor contact of the fuel tank pressure sensor connector.
Is there poor contact of fuel tank pressure sensor connector? Repair the poor contact of fuel tank pressure sensor connector. Replace the fuel tank pressure sensor. Refer to FUEL TANK PRESSURE SENSOR Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor.
