CAUTION: Before performing diagnosis, refer to "CAUTION" in "General Description". Ref. to BODY CONTROL (DIAGNOSTICS)>General Description>CAUTION .
  1. CHECK DTC  .

    Read the DTC of [Body Control] using the Subaru Select Monitor. Ref. to BODY CONTROL (DIAGNOSTICS)>Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) .

    Is DTC B1017 displayed? (Current malfunction)

    Yes  : Go to  2.

    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.
  2. CHECK DTC  .

    Read the DTC of [Airbag] using the Subaru Select Monitor. Ref. to AIRBAG (DIAGNOSTICS)>DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) .

    Are any DTCs displayed? (Current malfunction)

    Yes  : Perform the diagnosis for the displayed DTCs of airbag.

    No  : Go to  3.

  3. CHECK HARNESS (OPEN CIRCUIT)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF, and wait for 60 seconds or more after disconnecting the ground terminal from the battery sensor. Ref. to REPAIR CONTENTS>NOTE>BATTERY .
    2. Disconnect the airbag control module connector.
    3. Disconnect the body integrated unit connector.
    4. Using a tester, measure the resistance between the airbag control module connector and body integrated unit connector.
      CAUTION: To measure the voltage and resistance of airbag system component, be sure to use the specified test harness. Ref. to AIRBAG (DIAGNOSTICS)>GENERAL DESCRIPTION .

      Connector & terminal 

      (i81) No. 31 - (AB6) No. 38:

    Is the resistance less than 10 Ω?

    Yes  : Go to  4.

    No  : Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.

  4. CHECK HARNESS (GROUND SHORT CIRCUIT)  .

    Measure the resistance between body integrated unit connector and chassis ground using tester.

    Connector & terminal 

    (i81) No. 31 - Chassis ground:

    Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

    Yes  : Go to  5.

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

  5. CHECK THE CONNECTOR (SHORT CIRCUIT TO POWER SUPPLY)  .
    1. Connect the ground terminal to battery sensor. Ref. to REPAIR CONTENTS>NOTE>BATTERY .
    2. Measure the voltage between body integrated unit connector and chassis ground using tester.

      Connector & terminal 

      (i81) No. 31 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

    Is the voltage less than 1 V?

    Yes  : Replace the body integrated unit. Ref. to SECURITY AND LOCKS>BODY INTEGRATED UNIT .

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