1. CHECK DTC  .
   1. Insert the ignition key to the ignition key cylinder and remove.
   2. Read the DTC of body integrated unit using Subaru Select Monitor. Ref. to BODY CONTROL SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS)>Read Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) 

   Is DTC U1500 displayed? (Current malfunction)

   Yes: Go to  2

   No: Go to  7

2. CHECK DTC  .
   1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
   2. Disconnect the body integrated unit and the TPMS & keyless entry CONTROL MODULE or keyless entry CONTROL MODULE connector.
   3. Connect the disconnected connectors.
   4. Insert the ignition key to the ignition key cylinder and remove.
   5. Read the DTC of body integrated unit using Subaru Select Monitor. Ref. to BODY CONTROL SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS)>Read Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) 

   Is DTC U1500 displayed? (Current malfunction)

   Yes: Go to  3

   No: Go to  7

3. CHECK HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT)  .
   1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
   2. Disconnect the body integrated unit and the TPMS & keyless entry CONTROL MODULE or keyless entry CONTROL MODULE connector.
   3. Using the tester, measure the resistance between terminals.

      Connector & terminal 

      With TPMS

      (i171) No. 11 - (R221) No. 11:

      Without TPMS

      (i171) No. 11 - (R80) No. 3:

   Is the resistance 10 Ω or less?

   Yes: Go to  4

   No: Repair the open circuit of harness or replace harness.

4. CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT  .
   1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
   2. Use a tester to measure the voltage between the terminals.

      Connector & terminal 

      With TPMS

      (R221) No. 6 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

      (R221) No. 4 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

      Without TPMS

      (R80) No. 4 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

   Is the voltage 10 V or more?

   Yes: Go to  5

   No: Repair the power supply circuit.

5. CHECK HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT)  .

   Using the tester, measure the resistance between terminals.

   Connector & terminal 

   With TPMS 

   (R221) No. 5 - Chassis ground:

   Without TPMS 

   (R80) No. 7 - Chassis ground:

   Is the resistance 10 Ω or less?

   Yes: Go to  6

   No: Repair the ground circuit.

6. CHECK CONTROL MODULE  .
   1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
   2. Remove the TPMS & keyless entry CONTROL MODULE or the keyless entry CONTROL MODULE.
   3. Install a TPMS & keyless entry CONTROL MODULE or keyless entry CONTROL MODULE that was operating normally on another vehicle.

   Does it operate with the remote control key of another vehicle?

   Yes: Replace the TPMS & keyless entry CONTROL MODULE or keyless entry CONTROL MODULE. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS>Keyless Entry Control Module>REMOVAL . Ref. to WHEEL AND TIRE SYSTEM>Tire Pressure Monitoring System>REMOVAL

   No: Replace the body integrated unit. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS>Body Integrated Unit

7. CHECK CONNECTOR  .

   Check the connector used for keyless communication for poor contact.

   Is there poor contact of connector?

   Yes: Repair the connector that has poor contact, or replace harness.

   No: It is possible that temporary poor communication occurs. Delete the DTC. Ref. to BODY CONTROL SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS)>Clear Memory Mode
