Step

Check

Yes

No

1

CHECK POWER SUPPLY FOR STEERING 
ANGLE SENSOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from steering 
angle sensor.
3) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
4) Measure the voltage between the steering 
angle sensor and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(B231) No. 4 (+) — Chassis ground (–):

Is the voltage 10 — 15 V?

Go to step 2.

Repair the power 
supply circuit of 
steering angle sen-
sor.

2

CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT OF STEERING 
ANGLE SENSOR.
Measure the resistance between steering angle 
sensor and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

Is the resistance less than 0.5 

:? Go to step 3.

Repair ground cir-
cuit in the steering 
angle sensor.

3

CHECK STEERING ANGLE SENSOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Connect all connectors.
3) Clear the memory. <Ref. to VDC(diag)-23, 
Clear Memory Mode.>
4) Perform the Inspection Mode. <Ref. to 
VDC(diag)-22, Inspection Mode.>
5) Read the DTC. 

Is the same DTC displayed?

Go to step 4.

Go to step 5.

4

CHECK VDCCM&H/U.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Replace the steering angle sensor.
3) Clear the memory. <Ref. to VDC(diag)-23, 
Clear Memory Mode.>
4) Perform the Inspection Mode. <Ref. to 
VDC(diag)-22, Inspection Mode.>
5) Read the DTC. 

Is the same DTC displayed?

Replace the 
VDCCM only. 
<Ref. to VDC-10, 
REPLACEMENT, 
VDC Control Mod-
ule and Hydraulic 
Control Unit 
(VDCCM&H/U).>

Go to step 6.

5

CHECK OTHER DTC DETECTION.

Is any other DTC displayed?

Perform the diag-
nosis according to 
DTC. <Ref. to 
VDC(diag)-34, List 
of Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code (DTC).>

Temporary poor 
contact occurs.

6

CHECK OTHER DTC DETECTION.

Is any other DTC displayed?

Perform the diag-
nosis according to

Step

Check

Yes

No

1

CHECK DRIVING PLACE.
Check if the vehicle ran the road with banks or 
sandy surface (which does not mean a dirt 
road).

Did the vehicle run the road 
with banks or sandy surface 
(which does not mean a dirt 
road)?

VDCCM&H/U may 
record DTC when 
the vehicle ran the 
road with banks or 
sandy surface 
(which does not 
mean a dirt road).

Go to step 2.

2

CHECK YAW RATE & LATERAL G SENSOR 
INSTALLATION.

Is the yaw rate & lateral G sen-
sor installation bolt tightened to 
7.5 N·m (0.76 kgf-m, 5.5 ft-lb)?

Go to step 3.

Tighten the yaw 
rate & lateral G 
sensor installation 
bolt.

3

CHECK OUTPUT OF YAW RATE & LATERAL 
G SENSOR WITH SUBARU SELECT MONI-
TOR.
1) Drive the vehicle on a flat road.
2) Park the vehicle straight.
3) Select {Current Data Display & Save} in the 
Subaru Select Monitor.
4) Read the yaw rate output displayed on dis-
play.

Is the reading indicated on 
monitor display –4 — 4 deg/s?

Go to step 4.

Replace the yaw 
rate & lateral G 
sensor.

4

CHECK OUTPUT OF STEERING ANGLE 
SENSOR WITH SUBARU SELECT MONI-
TOR.
1) Drive the vehicle on a flat road.
2) Park the vehicle straight.
3) Select {Current Data Display & Save} in the 
Subaru Select Monitor.
4) Read the steering angle sensor output dis-
played on display.

Is the reading indicated on 
monitor display –5 — 5°?

Go to step 5.

Perform the cen-
tering adjustment 
of steering wheel.

5

CHECK YAW RATE & LATERAL G SENSOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Connect all connectors.
3) Clear the memory. <Ref. to VDC(diag)-23, 
Clear Memory Mode.>
4) Perform the Inspection Mode. <Ref. to 
VDC(diag)-22, Inspection Mode.>
5) Read the DTC. 

Is the same DTC displayed?

Go to step 6.

Go to step 7.

6

CHECK VDCCM&H/U.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Replace the yaw rate & lateral G sensor.
3) Clear the memory. <Ref. to VDC(diag)-23, 
Clear Memory Mode.>
4) Perform the Inspection Mode. <Ref. to 
VDC(diag)-22, Inspection Mode.>
5) Read the DTC. 

Is the same DTC displayed?

Replace the 
VDCCM only. 
<Ref. to VDC-10, 
REPLACEMENT, 
VDC Control Mod-
ule and Hydraulic 
Control Unit 
(VDCCM&H/U).>

Go to step 8.

7

CHECK OTHER DTC DETECTION.

Is any other DTC displayed?

Perform the diag-
nosis according to 
DTC. <Ref. to 
VDC(diag)-34, List 
of Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code (DTC).>

Temporary poor 
contact occurs.

8

CHECK OTHER DTC DETECTION.

Is any other DTC displayed?

Perform the diag-
nosis according to 
DTC. <Ref. to 
VDC(diag)-34, List 
of Diagnostic Trou-
ble Code (DTC).>

Malfunction is 
found in original 
yaw rate & lateral 
G sensor.
