      Clear memory 

   2. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
   3. Disconnect the MFD connector and reconnect it.
   4. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
   5. Read the DTC of [Multi-Function Display] using the Subaru Select Monitor. Ref. to MULTI-FUNCTION DISPLAY (DIAGNOSTICS)>DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) .

      DTC Check 

   Is DTC U0074 displayed? (Current malfunction)

   Yes:  Go to  2.

   No:  Even if DTC (past malfunction) is displayed, 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 (GROUND SHORT CIRCUIT)  .
   1. Disconnect the MFD connector.
   2. Using a tester, measure the resistance between MFD connector and chassis ground.

      Connector & terminal

      (i122) No. 19-Chassis ground:

      (i122) No. 20-Chassis ground:

   Is the resistance 10 kO or more?

   Yes:  Go to  3.

   No:  Even if DTC is displayed, 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.
3. CHECK HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT)  .
   1. Disconnect the body integrated unit connector.
   2. Using a tester, measure the resistance between the MFD connector and body integrated unit connector.

      Connector & terminal

      (i122) No. 19-(B281) No. 17:

      (i122) No. 20-(B281) No. 19:

   Is the resistance 10 Ω or less?

   Yes:  Go to  4.

   No:  Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.

4. CHECK LAN SYSTEM  .

   Perform the diagnosis for LAN system. Ref. to LAN SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS)>Basic Diagnostic Procedure>PROCEDURE .

   Is the check result OK?

   Yes:  Replace the MFD. Ref. to INSTRUMENTATION/DRIVER INFO>MULTI-FUNCTION DISPLAY (MFD) .

   No:  Perform the inspection according to the diagnosis for LAN system.
