  1. Remove the switch - power window main.
  2. Connect the battery and the Subaru Select Monitor to the switch - power window main terminal. CAUTION: Never mix up the terminals when connecting the harness connector of the switch - power window main and the battery. If the connection is wrong, the switch - power window main may be damaged. NOTE: When the battery is connected to the switch - power window main terminal, the letters "AUTO" on the driver's side knob illuminates. For detailed procedures, refer to "Subaru Select Monitor Operation Manual".
  3. Operate the switch - power window main and check the output. NOTE: Since output time during window UP operation is extremely short, it cannot be checked without using a measuring instrument such as oscilloscope. Output is constantly produced while the switch is operated for window DOWN operation. Inspection conditions Output time Standard AUTO UP Approx. 130 ms Battery voltage UP OFF - 0 V DOWN During switch operation Battery voltage AUTO DOWN Approx. 300 ms
  4. If the inspection result is not within the standard, replace the switch - power window main.

  3. Clean the glass - front window and the body with alcohol or white gasoline to completely eliminate cutting powder, dust and dirt.
  4. Attach the dam rubber - front to the glass - front window. NOTE: Adhere the dam rubber along with the ceramic print.
  5. Attach the molding - front window to the glass - front window. CAUTION: Be careful to attach the molding - front window so that the molding has no loose or undulating part. Align the molding - front window (A) to the upper ends (a) of the glass - front window (C). Install the molding - front window from both corners of the upper edge toward the center (b). Install the molding - front window from both corners of the upper edge toward the lower side (c). Firmly apply the double sided tape (B) of the molding - front window evenly to the surface of the glass - front window.

Glass primer: Dow Automotive's ESSEX U-401, U-402 or equivalent Painted surface primer: Dow Automotive's ESSEX U-413 or equivalent NOTE: Primer once attached to the painted surface of the body and internal trim is hard to wipe off. Mask the circumference of such area. Let primer dry for about ten minutes before installing the glass - front window. Do not touch the surface coated with primer. Apply adhesive to the end back surface of the glass - front window. Adhesive: Dow Automotive's ESSEX U-400HV or equivalent Fit the locating pins - front window to the vehicle body using suction rubber cups to install the windshield glass. Lightly press the entire perimeter of the glass - front window for tight fit. Make flush the adhesive surface jutted out using spatula.
  7. After completion of all work, allow the vehicle to stand for about 24 hours. NOTE: When opening/closing the door after the glass - front window was bonded, always lower the glass assembly - door first, and then open/close it carefully. Move the vehicle slowly. For minimum drying time and vehicle standing time before driving after bonding, follow instructions or instruction manual from the adhesive manufacturer.
  8. Connect the wiper deicer connector. (Models with wiper deicer)
