ST2 498247100 DIAL GAUGE
NOTE:
•Measure the backlash by applying a pinion tooth
between two bevel gear teeth.
•Fix the bevel pinion gear in place with a screw-
driver or similar tool when measuring.
Specification:
0.13 — 0.18 mm (0.0051 — 0.0071 in)
(3) If the backlash is not within specification, se-
lect a washer from the table below.
6) Using the ST, install the taper roller bearing.

E: INSPECTION
•Check each component for scratches, damage
or other faults.
•Measure the backlash, and then adjust it to be
within specification.
F: ADJUSTMENT
1) Using the ST, screw-in the retainer until resis-
tance is felt.
NOTE:

6) Tighten the LH retainer by rotating the shaft until
resistance is felt. Then loosen the retainer RH.
Keep tightening the retainer LH, and loosening the
retainer RH until the pinion shaft no longer be
turned. This is the “zero” state.
7) After the “zero” state is established, back off the
retainer LH 3 notches and secure it with the lock
plate. Then back off the retainer RH and retighten
until it stops. Rotate the drive pinion 2 or 3 times.
Tighten the retainer RH further 1-3/4 notches. This
sets the preload. Finally, secure the retainer with its
lock plate.
NOTE:
Turning the retainer by one tooth changes the
backlash approx. 0.05 mm (0.0020 in).
8) Turn the drive pinion several times using ST1,
and check to see if the backlash is within the spec-
ification using ST2, ST3, ST4 and ST5.

3. General Description
A: CAUTION
•SRS AIRBAG SYSTEM
The airbag system wiring harness is routed near
the TCM.
CAUTION:
•All air bag system wiring harnesses and con-
nectors are colored yellow. Do not use an elec-
tric test equipment to check these circuits.
•Be careful not to damage the airbag system
wiring harness when performing diagnostics or
servicing the TCM.
•MEASUREMENT
When measuring the voltage and resistance of the
ECM, TCM or each sensor, use a tapered pin with
a diameter of less than 0.64 mm (0.025 in) in order
to avoid poor contact. Do not insert a pin of more
than 0.65 mm (0.026 in) diameter.
B: INSPECTION

Measure the battery voltage and specific gravity of
electrolyte.
Standard voltage: 12 V or more
Specific gravity: 1.260 or more
2. TRANSMISSION GROUND
Make sure that the ground terminal bolt is tightened
securely.
Tightening torque:

A: GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Be sure to perform the {Clear Memory 2} only when
the following services have been performed. And
when the shifting shock is occurred during the total
check with vehicle driving, perform the learning
with following procedures.
Select Monitor.>
•Replacement of TCM
•Replacement of transmission assembly
•Simultaneous replacement of TCM and trans-
mission assembly
•Replacement of each clutch
•Replacement of control valve body
CAUTION:
When {Clear Memory 2} is executed, DTC may
not be cleared.
B: PROCEDURE
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Turn the air conditioner switch to OFF.
3) Turn the headlight switch to OFF.
4) Turn the rear defogger switch to OFF.
5) Start the engine.
6) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to the vehi-
cle.
7) Drive the vehicle for 5 — 10 km (3 — 6 mile) to
warm up ATF temperature more than 70 °C (158
°F).
8) While checking that the throttle opening angle on
Subaru Select Monitor is within the specified range,
shift the gear from 1st → 2nd, 2nd → 3rd, and 3rd
→ 4th, while driving the vehicle at “D” range.

10) Repeat the steps 8) and 9) until the reducing ef-
fect of the shifting shock is felt.
11) If reducing of shifting shock is not felt after 5 cy-
cles, recheck that the learning conditions (throttle
opening angle, ATF temperature, etc.) are as spec-
ified and recheck that other parts are normal.
