IMMOBILIZER (DIAGNOSTIC)
General Description
2. General Description
A: CAUTION
CAUTION:
 The airbag system wiring harnesses rout-
ed near the immobilizer control module. All
airbag system wiring harness and connec-
tors are colored yellow. Do not use electrical
test equipment on these circuits.
 Be careful not to damage the airbag system
wiring harness when servicing the immobilizer
control module.
 While diagnostic items are being checked, do
not operate radios, portable telephones, etc.
which emit electromagnetic waves near or
inside the vehicle.
 When the ignition switch is being turned ON or
OFF while diagnostic items are being checked, do
not allow keys with different ID codes close to the
ignition switch. If the ignition key is in a key
holder, remove it from the holder before carrying
out diagnoses. When repeatedly turning the ignition switch
to ON or OFF while diagnostic items are being
checked, it should be switched in cycles of
“ON” for at least 5 seconds → “OFF” for at least
8 seconds.
 If the engine fails to start with a registered
ignition key, detach the ignition key from ignition
switch and wait for approx. 1 second until immobi-
lizer warning light begins to flash. Start the engine
again.
 Before checking the diagnostic items, obtain
all keys for the vehicle to be checked possessed
by owner.

5. Subaru Select Monitor
A: OPERATION
1. HOW TO USE SUBARU SELECT MONI-
TOR
1) Prepare the Subaru Select Monitor kit.
2) Connect the diagnosis cable to Subaru Select
Monitor.
3) Insert the cartridge into Subaru Select Monitor.
4) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data link
connector.
(1) Data link connector is located in the lower
portion of the instrument panel (on driver’s side).
(2) Connect the diagnosis cable to data link
connector.
CAUTION:
Do not connect the scan tools except for Suba-
ru Select Monitor.5) Turn the ignition switch to ON (engine OFF), and
then Subaru Select Monitor switch to ON.
6) Using the Subaru Select Monitor, call up any
DTCs and various data, and then record them.
2. READ DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE
(DTC) FOR ENGINE.
Refer to Read Diagnostic Trouble Code for informa-
tion about how to indicate DTC. Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).>
3. COMMUNICATION LINE CHECK
NOTE:
The communication line between ECM and IMM
ECM can be checked in «System Operation Check
Mode». This is referred to as “communication line
check”.
1) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor.
2) Set the «System Operation Check Mode» menu
display screen, and then select {Immobilizer Sys-
tem}.
3) Start the communication line check.
4) Does “Communication Line not Shorted” appear
on screen?
If “YES”. Go to step 5).
If “NO”. Go to step 6).
5) After diagnostic results, it is determined that the
short circuit is not a diagnostic item. This completes
communication line check.
6) If a problem is detected, repair. DTC P1572 IMM CIRCUIT FAILURE (EXCEPT
ANTENNA CIRCUIT), Diagnostics Procedure with
