Step	Check	Yes	No
1 CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR DATA. Warm up the engine until engine coolant temperature is higher than 75°C (167°F), and keep the engine speed at 3, 000 RPM. (2 minutes maximum) Read the data of rear oxygen sensor signal using Subaru Select Monitor or general scan tool. NOTE: Subaru Select Monitor For detailed operation procedures, refer to "READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE". Refer to Subaru Select Monitor . General scan tool For detailed operation procedures, refer to the general scan tool operation manual.	Is the voltage 490 mV or more?	Go to step 6 .	Go to step 2 .
2 CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR DATA. Warm up the engine until engine coolant temperature is higher than 75°C (167°F), and rapidly reduce the engine speed from 3, 000 RPM. Read the data of rear oxygen sensor signal using Subaru Select Monitor or general scan tool. NOTE: Subaru Select Monitor For detailed operation procedures, refer to "READ CURRENT DATA FOR ENGINE". Refer to Subaru Select Monitor . General scan tool For detailed operation procedures, refer to the general scan tool operation manual.	Is the voltage 250 mV or less?	Go to step 6 .	Go to step 3 .
3 CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR AND COUPLING CONNECTOR.	Has water entered the connector?	Completely remove any water inside.	Go to step 4 .
4 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR. Turn the ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect the connector from ECM and rear oxygen sensor. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM and rear oxygen sensor connector. Connector & terminal (B135) No. 28 - (E25) No. 3: (B135) No. 30 - (E25) No. 4:	Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?	Go to step 5 .	Repair the harness and connector. NOTE: In this case, repair the following item: Open circuit in harness between ECM and rear oxygen sensor connector Poor contact of coupling connector
5 CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR. Connect the connector to ECM. Turn the ignition switch to ON. Measure the voltage between rear oxygen sensor connector and chassis ground. Connector & terminal (E25) No. 3 (+) - Chassis ground (-):	Is the voltage 0.2 - 0.5 V?	Replace the rear oxygen sensor. Refer to REAR OXYGEN SENSOR Rear Oxygen Sensor.	Repair the harness and connector. NOTE: In this case, repair the following item: Open circuit in harness between ECM and rear oxygen sensor connector Poor contact of ECM connector Poor contact of coupling connector
6 CHECK EXHAUST SYSTEM. Check exhaust system parts. NOTE: Check the following items. Looseness and improper fitting of exhaust system parts Damage (crack, hole etc.) of parts Loose part and improper installation between front oxygen (A/F) sensor and rear oxygen sensor	Is there any fault in exhaust system?	Repair or replace faulty parts.	Replace the rear oxygen sensor. Refer to REAR OXYGEN SENSOR Rear Oxygen Sensor.
