Before performing diagnosis, refer to “CAUTION” in “General Description”. POWER REAR GATE(DIAGNOSTICS)>General Description>CAUTION

 

If the communication with the body integrated unit is not possible either, refer to LAN SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS). LAN SYSTEM (DIAGNOSTICS)>Diagnostic Procedure for Subaru Select Monitor Communication

1. CHECK FUSE.
1.

Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2.

Check the fuse.

Is the check result OK?

2

Replace the fuse. If the replaced fuse blows out easily, repair the ground short circuit in the harness between the battery and Power rear gate CM.

2. CHECK POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT (OPEN).
1.

Disconnect the Power rear gate CM connector in the order of (R423) → (R422).

2.

Turn the ignition switch to ON.

3.

Using a tester, measure the voltage between Power rear gate CM connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(R422) No. 16 (+) — Chassis ground (−):

(R423) No. 6 (+) — Chassis ground (−):

Is the voltage 10 V or more?

3

Repair the open circuit of the harness between Power rear gate CM connector and the fuse.

3. CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT (OPEN).
1.

Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2.

Using a tester, measure the resistance between Power rear gate CM connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(R423) No. 4 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

4

Repair the open circuit in harness between Power rear gate CM connector and chassis ground.

4. CHECK BODY INTEGRATED UNIT.

Check the body control system. BODY CONTROL(DIAGNOSTICS)>Basic Diagnostic Procedure

Is the check result OK?

5

Perform the inspection according to the diagnosis for body control system.

5. CHECK SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.
1.

Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to another vehicle.

2.

Check whether the communication for initializing can be executed normally.

Is communication normal?

6

Repair or replace the Subaru Select Monitor.

6. CHECK Power rear gate CM.
1.

Connect the Power rear gate CM connector in the order of (R422) → (R423).

2.

Communicate with [Power Rear Gate] 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.

Replace Power rear gate CM. POWER REAR GATE SYSTEM>Power Rear Gate Control Module

OPERATION
 

  • For detailed operation procedures, refer to “Common (Diagnostics)”. COMMON(diag)>Data Monitor

  • For details on the data monitor, refer to the list. POWER REAR GATE(DIAGNOSTICS)>Data Monitor>LIST

  • Communication with Power rear gate CM and Subaru Select Monitor takes time. It takes time to show all the items, and the status cannot be reflected on the display. Therefore, select items only that need to be checked or up to two to three items, when checking the status. (When displaying selected items only, place a check mark for the item to be displayed and press the “Select” button.)

Connector & terminal

(R423) No. 6 (+) — Chassis ground (−):

Is the voltage 9 V or more?

5

Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.

5. CHECK HARNESS.

Using a tester, measure the resistance between Power rear gate CM connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(R423) No. 4 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance less than 10 Ω?

6

Repair or replace the open circuit of harness.

6. CHECK CONNECTOR.

Check the Power rear gate CM connector (R423).

Is there poor contact of connector?

Repair or replace the poor contact of connector.

Replace Power rear gate CM. POWER REAR GATE SYSTEM>Power Rear Gate Control Module
