Step Check Yes No
1 CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR TCM. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
  2. Move the select lever to each range, read the data of "P, R, N, D range" using the Subaru Select Monitor.
Is display "OFF &" for the range other than corresponding range? Go to step . Go to step .
2 CHECK HARNESS. 
  1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
  2. Disconnect the TCM and transmission connectors.
  3. Measure the resistance between TCM connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (B54) No. 5 - Chassis ground: 

    (B54) No. 18 - Chassis ground: 

    (B54) No. 9 - Chassis ground: 

    (B54) No. 22 - Chassis ground: 

Is each resistance 1 MΩ or more? Go to step . Repair the short circuit of harness.
3 CHECK HARNESS. 
  1. Disconnect the inhibitor switch connector.
  2. Measure the resistance between transmission connector and inhibitor switch connector.

    Connector & terminal 

    (T3) No. 3 - (T7) No. 2: 

    (T3) No. 2 - (T7) No. 5: 

    (T3) No. 1 - (T7) No. 3: 

    (T3) No. 8 - (T7) No. 4: 

Is each resistance 1 MΩ or more? Go to step . Repair the short circuit of harness.
4 CHECK INHIBITOR SWITCH. 
Move the select lever to each range, and measure the resistance between inhibitor switch connector terminals
Connector & terminal 
(T7) No. 2 - (T7) No. 1: 
(T7) No. 5 - (T7) No. 1: 
(T7) No. 3 - (T7) No. 1: 
(T7) No. 4 - (T7) No. 1: 
Is the resistance other than corresponding range 1 MΩ or more? Go to step . Replace the inhibitor switch. Refer to INHIBITOR SWITCH .
5 CHECK FOR POOR CONTACT.  Is there poor contact between TCM, inhibitor switch, transmission ground? Repair the poor contact. Check the TCM.
