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

    Check the part number of the ECM, TCM, VDC control module and combination meter.

    Is each control module a genuine part?

    Yes  : Go to  2 .

    No  : Replace the non-genuine control module with a genuine one.

  2. CHECK STEREO CAMERA  .
    1. Remove the camera cover.
    2. Check the part number of the stereo camera.

    Is the stereo camera genuine?

    Yes  : Go to  3 .

    No  : Replace the stereo camera. Ref. to EYESIGHT>STEREO CAMERA>REMOVAL .

  3. CHECK LAN SYSTEM  .

    Perform the diagnosis for LAN system. Ref. to LAN SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS)>BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE .

    Is the check result OK?

    Yes  : Go to  4 .

    No  : Perform the diagnosis for LAN system.

  4. CHECK WORK SUPPORT DISPLAY  .

    Using the Subaru Select Monitor, select [Work Support] on the [Select Function] display of [EyeSight].

    Is [Confirm on parameter] displayed?

    Yes  : Go to  5 .

    No  : Perform the adjustment or inspection of the camera. Ref. to EYESIGHT>CAMERA ADJUSTMENT, INSPECTION . Go to  10 .

  5. CHECK DTC  .
    1. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, perform the clear memory of [EyeSight]. Ref. to COMMON (DIAG)>CLEAR MEMORY .
    2. Turn the ignition switch OFF → ON.
    3. Read the DTC of [EyeSight] using the Subaru Select Monitor. Ref. to Eyesight (Diagnostics)>Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) .

    Does DTC B28A0 stay as a current malfunction?

    Yes  : Go to  6 .

    No  : Currently, it is normal. Finish the diagnosis.

  6. CHECK FUSE  .

    Check fuses No. 11 and No. 22 in the fuse and relay box. Ref. to EYESIGHT>RELAY AND FUSE .

    Is the check result OK?

    Yes  : Go to  7 .

    No  : Replace the defective fuse. When the replaced fuse blows out easily, check the short circuit in harness.

  7. CHECK HARNESS (POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT)  .
    1. Disconnect the stereo camera.
    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    3. Using a tester, measure the voltage between connector of stereo camera and chassis ground.

      Connector and terminal 

      (Rf21) No. 6 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

      (Rf21) No. 8 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

    Is the voltage 10 V or more?

    Yes  : Go to  8 .

    No  : Check the power supply system circuit, and if any fault is found, repair the defective parts or replace the harness.

  8. CHECK HARNESS (GROUND CIRCUIT)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
    2. Disconnect the ground terminal from battery sensor. Ref. to REPAIR CONTENTS>NOTE>BATTERY .
    3. Using a tester, measure the resistance between stereo camera and chassis ground.

      Connector and terminal 

      (Rf21) No. 7 - Chassis ground:

    Is the resistance less than 10 Ω?

    Yes  : Go to  9 .

    No  : Check the ground system circuit, and if any fault is found, repair the defective parts or replace the harness.

  9. CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTORS  .

    Check stereo camera connector.

    Is there poor contact of connector?

    Yes  : Repair the connector.

    No  : Go to  10 .

  10. CHECK STEREO CAMERA  .
    1. Connect all connectors and battery terminals securely.
    2. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, perform the clear memory of [EyeSight]. Ref. to COMMON (DIAG)>CLEAR MEMORY .
    3. Read the DTC of [EyeSight] using the Subaru Select Monitor. Ref. to Eyesight (Diagnostics)>Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) .

    Is DTC B28A0 displayed?

    Yes  : Replace the stereo camera. Ref. to EYESIGHT>STEREO CAMERA>REMOVAL .

    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.
