DTC U1712: Lost Lin Communication With Battery "1" Monitor Module: Notes

1. - DTC detecting condition: 

Immediately at fault recognition

Wiring diagram: 

Engine Electrical System Ref. to WIRING SYSTEM>ENGINE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM .

G13866509Courtesy of SUBARU OF AMERICA, INC.
CAUTION:

Use the check board when measuring the ECM terminal voltage and resistance. Ref. to  ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DOTC)>GENERAL DESCRIPTION>PREPARATION TOOL>HOW TO USE CHECK BOARD  . 

NOTE:

After the faulty parts are repaired or replaced, perform the final check in Basic Diagnostic Procedure. Ref. to  ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DOTC)>BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE>PROCEDURE  . 

  1. CHECK DTC  .

    Using the Subaru Select Monitor or a general scan tool, read the DTC of [Engine]. Ref. to COMMON (DIAG)>DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) .

    Is DTC U1712 displayed? (Current malfunction)

    Yes  : Go to  2.

    No  : The circuit has returned to a normal condition at this time. Reproduce the failure, and then perform the diagnosis again.

    NOTE:

    In this case, temporary poor contact of connector, temporary open or short circuit of harness may be the cause. 

  2. CHECK ECM CONNECTOR  .

    Check the connecting condition of ECM connector.

    Is the ECM connector correctly connected?

    Yes  : Go to  3.

    No  : Connect the ECM connector correctly.

  3. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN BATTERY AND BATTERY SENSOR CONNECTOR (OPEN)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
    2. Disconnect the ground terminal from battery sensor. Ref. to REPAIR CONTENTS>NOTE>BATTERY .
    3. Disconnect the connector from battery sensor.
    4. Disconnect the positive terminal of battery.
    5. Measure the resistance of the harness between battery positive cable terminal and battery sensor connector.

      Connector & terminal 

      Positive cable terminal - (B9) No. 1:

      Positive cable terminal - (B9) No. 2:

      Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

      Yes  : Go to  4.

      No  : Repair the open circuit in harness between battery positive cable terminal and battery sensor connector.

  4. CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM CONNECTOR AND BATTERY SENSOR CONNECTOR (OPEN)  .
    1. Disconnect the connector from ECM.
    2. Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and battery sensor connector.

      Connector & terminal 

      (B9) No. 3 - (B134) No. 56:

      Is the resistance less than 1 Ω?

      Yes  : Repair the poor contact of ECM connector or battery sensor connector.

      No  : Repair the open circuit in harness between ECM connector and battery sensor connector.
