DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE WITH DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)

Step

Value

Yes

No

1

CHECK ANY OTHER DTC ON DISPLAY.
Does the Subaru Select Monitor or OBD-II 
general scan tool indicate DTC P0131, P0132 
or P0134?

Indicated.

Repair referring 
procedure for 
P0131, P0132 and 
P0134.

NOTE:
In this case, check-
ing procedure for
P0137 is not nec-
essary.

Go to step 2.

2

CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR DATA.
1) Warm-up the engine until engine coolant 

temperature is above 70

°

C (158

°

F), and 

keep the engine speed at 5,000 rpm for two 
minutes.

2) Read data of rear oxygen sensor signal 

using Subaru Select Monitor or OBD-II gen-
eral scan tool.
Does the value fluctuate?

NOTE:

•Subaru Select Monitor
For detailed operation procedure, refer to the 
“READ CURRENT DATA SHOWN ON DIS-
PLAY FOR ENGINE”. <Ref. to EN(H4SO)-32, 
Subaru Select Monitor.>
•OBD-II general scan tool
For detailed operation procedures, refer to the 
OBD-II General Scan Tool Instruction Manual.

490 mV

Go to step 5.

Go to step 3.

3

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND 
REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect connectors from ECM and rear 

oxygen sensor.

3) Measure resistance of harness between 

ECM and rear oxygen sensor connector.

Connector & terminal

(B135) No. 14 — (T6) No. 4:
(B135) No. 19 — (T6) No. 3:

Does the measured value exceed the spec-
ified value?

3 

Ω

Repair open circuit 
in harness 
between ECM and 
rear oxygen sen-
sor connector.

Go to step 4.

4

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN REAR OXY-
GEN SENSOR AND ECM CONNECTOR.
1) Turn ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect connector from rear oxygen 

sensor.

3) Turn ignition switch to ON.
4) Measure voltage between rear oxygen sen-

sor harness connector and engine ground 
or chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(T6) No. 4 (+) — Engine ground (

−−−−

):

Is the measured value within the specified 
range?

0.2 V - 0.5 V

Replace rear oxy-
gen sensor. <Ref. 
to FU(H4SO)-43, 
Rear Oxygen Sen-
sor.>

Repair harness 
and connector.

NOTE:
In this case, repair
the following:
• Open circuit in 
harness between 
rear oxygen sen-
sor and ECM con-
nector
• Poor contact in 
rear oxygen sen-
sor connector
• Poor contact in 
ECM connector

CHECK EXHAUST SYSTEM.
Check exhaust system parts.
Is there a fault in exhaust system?

NOTE:

Check the following items.
•Loose installation of portions
•Damage (crack, hole etc.) of parts
•Looseness and ill fitting of parts between front 
oxygen (A/F) sensor and rear oxygen sensor

There is a fault.

Repair or replace 
faulty parts.

Replace rear oxy-
gen sensor. <Ref. 
to FU(H4SO)-43, 
Rear Oxygen Sen-
sor.>
