Warning Light Illumination Pattern: Inspection
Courtesy of SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC.
- When warning lights or indicator lights do not illuminate in accordance with this illumination pattern, there must be an electrical malfunction.
- When warning lights or indicator lights remain constantly OFF, check the combination meter circuit or CAN communication circuit. < Refer to
ABS WARNING LIGHT , VDC OFF INDICATOR LIGHT, VDC WARNING LIGHT AND VDC INDICATOR LIGHT DO NOT COME ON, Warning Light Illumination Pattern. >
- When the ABS warning light, VDC OFF indicator light, and VDC warning light & VDC indicator light do not go off, check the combination meter circuit or CAN communication circuit. < Refer to
ABS WARNING LIGHT DOES NOT GO OFF , Warning Light Illumination Pattern. > < Refer to
VDC OFF INDICATOR LIGHT DOES NOT GO OFF , Warning Light Illumination Pattern. > < Refer to
VDC WARNING LIGHT AND VDC INDICATOR LIGHT DO NOT GO OFF , Warning Light Illumination Pattern. >
- When the brake warning light blinks and the hill hold indicator light illumination is faulty, check the parking brake system. < Refer to
BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
. >
NOTE:
- Even though the ABS warning light, and the VDC warning light & VDC indicator light do not go off in 2 seconds after illuminating, the ABS and VDC functions are normal if the warning lights go off while the vehicle is driven at approximately 12 km/h (7 MPH). However, while these lights are on, the functions with their warning lights illuminated do not operate.
- It may take several minutes before the VDC warning light & VDC indicator light goes off, if the vehicle is parked under low temperature for a specified time. This is not defective because it is resulted from low engine coolant temperature. If DTC is recorded at this time, perform the Clear Memory Mode. < Refer to
CLEAR MEMORY MODE . >
- With the vehicle jack-up/lift-up or set on free rollers, when the wheels lock or spin after starting the engine, ABS warning light, and VDC warning light & VDC indicator light may illuminate because VDCCM&H/U detects the abnormal conditions from ABS wheel speed sensors. In this case, this is not a malfunction. Perform the Clear Memory Mode. < Refer to
CLEAR MEMORY MODE . >
- On models with EyeSight, turn the pre-collision function to OFF.
