Connector & terminal

(i10) No. 1 (+) — Chassis ground (–):

(i10) No. 2 (+) — Chassis ground (–):

Is the voltage 10 — 13 V?

3

Repair the open circuit of harness between combination meter connector and fuse.

3. CHECK HARNESS.

Use a tester to measure the resistance between the combination meter connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(i10) No. 40 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

4

Repair the open circuit of harness between combination meter connector and chassis ground.

4. CHECK LAN SYSTEM.

Is the check result OK?

5

Perform the inspection according to the diagnosis for LAN system.

5. CHECK COMBINATION METER.
1.

Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2.

Connect the combination meter connector.

3.

Turn the ignition switch to ON.

4.

Communicate with [Combination Meter] using the Subaru Select Monitor.

Is communication possible?

  • The circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Reproduce the failure, and then perform the diagnosis again.

  •  

    In this case, temporary poor contact of connector, temporary open or short circuit of harness may be the cause.
