Subaru Crosstrek Service Manual: Caution

1. The airbag system wiring harness is routed near the TCM.

CAUTION:

• All the airbag system wiring harnesses and connectors are colored yellow. Do not use an electric test equipment to check these circuits.

• Be careful not to damage the airbag system wiring harness when performing diagnostics or servicing the TCM.

2. When measuring the voltage or resistance of individual sensor or all electrical control modules, use a tapered pin with a diameter of 0.6 mm (0.024 in) or less and touch it to the tip of terminal. Never insert the tapered pin into the terminal because it deforms inside which may lead to malfunction.

CAUTION:

If a taper pin or the like has been inserted into the connector terminal, replace the connector.

3. The TCM connector is waterproof. When measuring the TCM connector terminal voltage, or the resistance between the terminals, use the ST.
