CHECK SUBARU SELECT MONITOR .
1. Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to another vehicle.
2. Check communication condition between Subaru Select Monitor and vehicle.
Is communication performed normally?

Yes: Go to 2.

No: Subaru Select Monitor unit or diagnosis cable is faulty. Or check the fuse on the vehicle side.
CHECK HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT) .
Use a tester to check for continuity in the ground circuit.

Connector & terminal

(B40) No. 4 - Chassis ground:

(B40) No. 5 - Chassis ground:

Is there continuity?

Yes: Go to 3.

No: Repair or replace the open circuit.
CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR DATA LINK CONNECTOR .
1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Using a tester, check the power supply of data link connector.
  Connector & terminal
  
  (B40) No. 8 (+) - Chassis ground (-):
  
  (B40) No. 16 (+) - Chassis ground (-):
Is the voltage 10 V or more?

Yes: Go to 4.

No: Check the fuse and power supply circuit for data link connector.
CHECK COMMUNICATION FOR INITIALIZING ERROR .
Perform the communication for initializing with each module by connecting the Subaru Select Monitor. (For systems whose module can communicate with diagnostic devices)

Is the communication possible with all modules?

Yes: 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.

No: Perform the inspection using the check sheet of communication for initializing. Ref. to LAN SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS)>Subaru Select Monitor>COMMUNICATION FOR INITIALIZING IMPOSSIBLE>CHECK USING THE CHECK SHEET OF COMMUNICATION FOR INITIALIZING .
