WIRING DIAGRAM

11V1: CHECK CURRENT DATA.

1. Start engine.
2. Read data of fuel temperature sensor signal using Subaru Select Monitor or OBD-II general scan tool.

NOTE:
- Subaru Select Monitor
For detailed operation procedure, refer to the "READ CURRENT DATA SHOWN ON DISPLAY FOR ENGINE". Refer to Normal Scan Data Values.
- OBD-II general scan tool
For detailed operation procedures, refer to the OBD-II General Scan Tool Instruction Manual.

CHECK: Is the value less than -40 °C (-40 °F)?

YES: Go to step 11V2.

NO: Repair poor contact.

NOTE: In this case, repair the following:
- Poor contact in fuel pump connector
- Poor contact in ECM connector
- Poor contact in coupling connectors (B22, B99 and R57)
- Poor contact in joint connector (B83)

11V2: CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN FUEL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.

1. Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2. Remove access hole lid.





3. Disconnect connector from fuel pump.

Connector & Terminal - [(R58) No.6 (+) - Chassis Ground (-)]:





4. Measure voltage between fuel pump connector and chassis ground.

CHECK: Is the voltage more than 10 V?

YES: Repair battery short circuit in harness between ECM and fuel pump connector.

NO: Go to step 11V3.


11V3: CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN FUEL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.
1. Turn ignition switch to ON.

Connector & Terminal - [(R58) No.6 (+) - Chassis Ground (-)]:





2. Measure voltage between fuel pump connector and chassis ground.

CHECK: Is the voltage more than 10 V?

YES: Repair battery short circuit in harness between ECM and fuel pump connector

NO: Go to step 11V4.

11V4: CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN FUEL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.

Connector & Terminal - [(R58) No.6 (+) - Chassis Ground (-)]:





Measure voltage between fuel pump connector and chassis ground.

CHECK: Is the voltage more than 4 V?

YES: Go to step 11V5.

NO: Repair harness and connector.

NOTE: In this case, repair the following:
- Open circuit in harness between ECM and fuel pump connector
- Poor contact in fuel pump connector
- Poor contact in ECM connector
- Poor contact in coupling connectors (B99 and R57)

11V5: CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN FUEL TEMPERATURE SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.

1. Turn ignition switch to OFF.

Connector & Terminal - [(R58) No.5 - Chassis Ground]:





2. Measure resistance of harness between fuel pump connector and chassis ground.

CHECK: Is the resistance less than 5 Ohms?

YES: Replace fuel temperature sensor.

NO: Repair harness and connector.

NOTE: In this case, repair the following:
- Open circuit in harness between ECM and fuel pump connector
- Poor contact in fuel pump connector
- Poor contact in ECM connector
- Poor contact in coupling connectors (B99 and R57)
- Poor contact in joint connector (B83)
