1. CHECK DATA MONITOR  .

   Using Subaru Select Monitor, check [Memory stop SW]. Ref. to POWER REAR GATE (DIAGNOSTICS)>DATA MONITOR .

   Does the display switch between OFF ←→ ON according to memory height switch operation?

   Yes  :

   Input circuit is normal.

   No  :

   Go to  2.

2. CHECK HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT)  .
   1. Disconnect the Power rear gate control module connector in the order of (R423) → (R422).
   2. Disconnect the connector of memory height switch.
   3. Measure the resistance between Power rear gate control module connector and memory height switch connector.

      Connector & terminal 

      (R422) No. 8 - (i93) No. 1:

      Is the resistance less than 10 Ω?

      Yes  :

      Go to  3.

      No  :

      Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.

3. CHECK HARNESS (GROUND SHORT CIRCUIT)  .

   Measure the resistance between Power rear gate control module connector and chassis ground.

   Connector & terminal 

   (R422) No. 8 - Chassis ground:

   Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

   Yes  :

   Go to  4.

   No  :

   Repair or replace the short circuit of the harness.

4. CHECK HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT)  .

   Measure the resistance between the memory height switch connector and chassis ground.

   Connector & terminal 

   (i93) No. 4 - Chassis ground:

   Is the resistance less than 10 Ω?

   Yes  :

   Go to  5.

   No  :

   Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.

5. CHECK MEMORY HEIGHT SWITCH  .

   Check the resistance between memory height switch terminals.

   Terminals 

   No. 1 - No. 4:

   Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more at OFF, and less than 1 Ω at ON?

   Yes  :

   Go to  6.

   No  :

   Replace the memory height switch. Ref. to POWER REAR GATE SYSTEM>MEMORY HEIGHT SWITCH .

6. CHECK CONNECTOR  .

   Is there poor contact of connector?

   Yes  :

   Repair or replace the poor contact of connector.

   No  :

   Replace Power rear gate control module. Ref. to POWER REAR GATE SYSTEM>POWER REAR GATE CONTROL MODULE .
