  1. 9I1: CHECK OUTPUT SIGNAL EMITTED FROM TCM. 
    1. Warm-up the transmission until ATF temperature is above 80°C (176°F).
      NOTE: If ambient temperature is below 0°C (32°F), drive the vehicle until the ATF reaches its operating temperature.
    2. Stop the engine and turn ignition switch to ON (engine OFF).
    3. Move select lever to "N".
    4. Read data of line pressure duty solenoid using Subaru Select Monitor.
      • Line pressure duty solenoid is indicated in "%".
