3. A/C CONTROL SYSTEM SELF-DIAGNOSIS
Step Check Yes No
1SET SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE BY OPERAT-
ING A/C CONTROL PANEL.
1) Turn the ignition switch from OFF to ACC,
and wait for 2 seconds.
2) Start the engine with the auto switch and
FRESH/RECIRC switch pressed.
NOTE:
Self-diagnosis can also be performed with igni-
tion switch ON, but start the engine because
observing the magnet clutch operation is diffi-
cult.
3) All the indicators blink four times.
Does the self-diagnosis func-
tion operate?
Go to step 2. 15, A/C OR SELF-

2CHECK EACH SENSOR AND POTENTIOME-
TER
1) After the indicators stop blinking, automati-
cally change to the inspection mode of sensor
and potentiometer.
NOTE:
Display items can be changed each time the A/
C switch is pressed. (Step Operation)
2) When malfunction occurs in each sensor
and potentiometer, codes are displayed on the
screen. When no malfunction occurs in each
sensor and potentiometer, code “20” is dis-
played on the screen.
3) Identify the defective sensor according to
the sensor check table. SENSOR CHECK TABLE, OPERATION, Diag-
nostic Chart for Self-diagnosis.>
Are other codes except “20”
displayed?
Repair the defec-
tive sensor. to AC(diag)-31,

dure for Sensors.>
Go to step 3.
3CHECK EACH ACTUATOR, BLOWER FAN
AND MAGNET CLUTCH.
1) After completing each sensor and potenti-
ometer inspection, change to the inspection
mode of actuator, blower fan and magnet
clutch by pressing the defroster switch.
2) Each mode will change and operate auto-
matically every four seconds.
NOTE:
Operation mode items can be changed each
time the A/C switch is pressed. (Step Opera-
tion)
3) Check the operation of actuator, blower fan
and magnet clutch in each mode according to
the operating mode table. 14, OPERATING MODE TABLE, OPERATION,
Diagnostic Chart for Self-diagnosis.>
Do the actuator, blower fan and
magnet clutch operate as
described in the operating
mode table?
A/C control system
is normal. Press
the OFF switch
and complete the
self-diagnosis
function.

tive par t in accor-
dance with each

NOTE:
When the sunload sensor check is performed indoors or in the shade, it could be diagnosed as having an
open circuit. Always check the sunload sensor with the sun shining on it.
*1: “AUTO” display does not blink when past malfunction occurred. Past malfunction means that abnormal signals were contin-
uously input for a certain time in the past.
*2: Present malfunction only is displayed for sunload sensor open circuit.

2. General Description
A: CAUTION
CAUTION:
•The airbag system wiring harnesses and con-
nectors are yellow. Do not use electrical test
equipment on these circuits.
•Be careful not to damage the airbag system
wiring harness.
•While diagnostic items are being checked, do
not operate radios, portable telephones, etc.
which emit electromagnetic waves near or in-
side the vehicle.
•When turning the ignition switch to 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 diagnosis.
•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 → “O F F ” fo r a t le a s t
8 seconds.
•If the engine fails to start with a registered ig-
nition key, detach the ignition key from ignition
switch and wait for approx. 1 second until secu-
rity indicator light begins to flash. And then
start the engine again.
•Before checking the diagnostic items, obtain
all keys for the vehicle to be checked pos-
sessed by owner.
•Do not install or register a body integrated
unit of another registered vehicle to diagnose
failures or inspect functions.

ED UNIT
Refer to “Read Diagnostic Trouble Code” for infor-
mation about how to indicate DTC. ag)-8, Read Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).>
3. COMMUNICATION LINE CHECK
NOTE:
The communication line between ECM and body
integrated unit can be checked in “System Opera-
tion Check Mode”. This is referred to as “Commu-
nication line check”.
1) Connect the Subaru Select Monitor.
2) On the «Main Menu» display screen, select the
{Each System Check} and press the [YES] key.

select the {security system}.
7) Start the communication line check.
8) Is «OK» displayed on screen?
If displayed, go to step 9).
If «NO», go to step 10).
9) After diagnostic results, it is determined that the
circuit is not shorted. Finish the communication line
check.
10) If a problem is detected, repair the trouble
cause. CUIT FAILURE (EXCEPT ANTENNA CIRCUIT),
