CAUTION
- Supplemental Restraint System "Airbag" The airbag system wiring harness is routed near the transmission control module (TCM). All airbag system wiring harness and connectors are colored yellow. Do not use electrical test equipment on these circuit. Be careful not to damage the airbag system wiring harness when performing diagnostics and servicing the TCM.
- Measurement When measuring the voltage and resistance of the ECM, TCM or each sensor, use a tapered pin with a diameter of less than 0.64 mm (0.025 in) in order to avoid poor contact. Do not insert the pin more than 0.65 mm (0.0256 in).
BATTERY
Measure the battery voltage and specific gravity of electrolyte.
- Standard voltage: 12V or more
- Specific gravity: Above 1.260
TRANSMISSION GROUND
Make sure that the ground terminal bolt is tightened securely.
- Chassis side
- Tightening torque: 13 N.m (1.3 kgf-m, 9.4 ft-lb)

Scheme 701
The AT OIL TEMP warning light flashes the code corresponding to the faulty part.
The long segment (1.2 seconds on) indicates a "ten", and the short segment (0.2 seconds on) signifies a "one".
Scheme 702
WITH SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
Refer to SUBARU SELECT MONITOR for information about how to obtain and understand trouble codes. See OPERATION , Subaru Select Monitor.
WITHOUT SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
Current trouble codes shown on the display are cleared by turning the ignition switch OFF after conducting the on-board diagnostics operation. Previous trouble codes, however, cannot be cleared since they are stored in the TCM memory which is operating on the back-up power supply. These trouble codes can be cleared by removing the specified TCM connector for at least 2 minutes.
CLEAR MEMORY
Non-turbo model
- Remove TCM connector (B55)
Turbo model
- Remove TCM connector (B56)
- The TCM connector is located in the line to the memory back-up power supply of the TCM. Removal of this fuse clears the previous trouble codes stored in the TCM memory.
- Be sure to remove the TCM connector for at least the specified length of time. Otherwise, trouble codes may not be cleared.
Refer to SUBARU SELECT MONITOR for information about how to clear trouble codes. See CLEAR MEMORY MODE , OPERATION, Subaru Select Monitor.
