10K1CONNECT SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
OR THE OBD-II GENERAL SCAN TOOL,
AND READ DATA.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2) Connect Subaru Select Monitor or the OBD-II general
scan tool to data link connector.
3) Turn ignition switch to ON and Subaru Select Monitor or
OBD-II general scan tool switch to ON.

5) Read data on Subaru Select Monitor or OBD-II general
scan tool.

Subaru Select Monitor
Designate mode using function key.
Function mode: F07

F07: Throttle position sensor output signal is indicated.
: Is the value less than 0.1 V in function
mode F07?
: Go to step10G2.
: Even if MIL lights up, the circuit has returned to a
normal condition at this time. A temporary poor
contact of the connector may be the cause.
NOTE:
In this case, repair the following:

Poor contact in throttle position sensor connector

Poor contact in ECM connector

Poor contact in coupling connector (B21)

OBD-II general scan tool
For detailed operation procedures, refer to the OBD-II Gen-
eral Scan Tool Instruction Manual.

10K3CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR CON-
NECTOR.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect connectors from throttle position sensor.
3) Turn ignition switch to ON.
4) Measure voltage between throttle position sensor con-
nector and engine ground.
: Connector & terminal
(E13) No. 3 (+)—Engine ground ():
Is the voltage more than 4.5 V?
: Go to next step 5).
: Repair harness and connector.
NOTE:
In this case, repair the following:

Open circuit in harness between throttle position sensor
and ECM connector

Poor contact in throttle position sensor connector

Poor contact in ECM connector

Poor contact in coupling connector (B21)
B2M0543A
5) Turn ignition switch to OFF.
6) Measure resistance of harness between ECM connec-
tor and throttle position sensor connector.
: Connector & terminal
(B84) No. 6—(E13) No. 2:
Is the resistance less than 1Ω?
: Go to next step 7).
: Repair harness and connector.
NOTE:
In this case, repair the following:

Open circuit in harness between throttle position sensor
and ECM connector

Poor contact in ECM connector

Poor contact in throttle position sensor connector

Poor contact in coupling connector (B21)

7) Measure resistance of harness between throttle posi-
tion sensor connector and engine ground.
: Connector & terminal
(E13) No. 2—Engine ground:
Is the resistance less than 10Ω?
: Repair ground short circuit in harness between
throttle position sensor and ECM connector.
: Go to next.
: Is there poor contact in throttle position
sensor connector?
: Repair poor contact in throttle position sensor
connector.
: Replace throttle position sensor.
