2) Remove the molding front.
3) Tape the body side of the circumference of wind-
shield glass for protection.
4) Apply sufficient amount of soapy water to the ad-
hesive part.
5) Insert the windshield glass knife into adhesive
part.
6) While holding the knife edge and windshield
glass edge at a right angle, move the windshield
glass knife in parallel to the windshield glass edge
along the surface and edge of windshield glass to
cut the adhesive part.
NOTE:
•Do not twist the windshield glass knife.
•Cutting of adhesive part shall be started with wid-
er gap between windshield glass and body.
•The locating pins are bonded to the corners of
glass. Use piano wire to disconnect the pins.
2. USING PIANO WIRE
1) Remove the cowl panel.
MOVAL, Cowl Panel.>
2) Remove the molding front.
3) Tape the body side of the circumference of wind-
shield glass for protection.
4) Make a hole in the adhesive part using drill or
knife.
5) Pass the piano wire through the hole, and attach
both the wire ends securely to pieces of wood.
6) Pull the wire ends alternately to cut off the adhe-
sive part.
CAUTION:
•Do not tightly pull the piano wire against the
windshield glass edge.
•Be careful not to damage interior and exterior
parts.
•When removal is made with area close to in-
strument panel, place a protection plate over it.

cutter knife to obtain smooth face of 2 mm (0.08 in)
thick.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the body and paint
surface.
3) Clean the body with alcohol or white gasoline to
eliminate cutting powder, dust and dirt completely
from body.
4) Install the dam rubber.
5) Fit the mark (B) on molding to the notch (A) of
glass side, and install the molding to entire perime-
ter of glass.

A: INSPECTION
1. CHECK WITH SUBARU SELECT MONITOR
CAUTION:
Check that the rear window defogger timer is in initial setting or customize setting before performing
inspection.
2. HEAT WIRE INSPECTION
CAUTION:
Use a dry and soft cloth when wiping dirt off the
glass. Move the cloth along the heat wire to
avoid damaging it.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Turn the defogger switch to ON.
3) Wrap the tips of tester probe with aluminum foil
to avoid damage to heat wire.
4) Measure the voltage at heat wire center with DC
voltmeter.
Standard voltage:
Approx. 6 V
NOTE:
•If the measured value is 12 volts, heat wire is
open between heat wire center and positive (+) ter-
minal of tester probe.
•If it is 0 V, the circuit is open between heat wire
center and ground.
Step Check Yes No
1CHECK INPUT SIGNAL TO THE BODY INTE-
GRATED UNIT.
Check the input signal when the rear window
defogger switch is operated using Subaru
Select Monitor.
1) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor to data
link connector.
2) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
3) Select {Integ. unit} from the «main menu».
4) Select the {Current Data Display & Save}.
5) Check the input signal when the rear win-
dow defogger switch is set to ON.
After rear defogger switch is
set to ON, does it turn to OFF
in 15 minutes? Or does it
repeat 15 minutes operation
and 2 minutes stop?
