Even if DTC is displayed, 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 SYSTEM OPERATION.
Using the Subaru Select Monitor, change the setting of “Fresh/Rec Air Dr Act Trgt Open Angle” from Air Conditioning Diagnosis and perform the active test.
Did the actuator move to the specified target opening angle?
Intake door actuator circuit is normal.

3.CHECK HARNESS.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Using the tester, measure the voltage between terminals.
Connector & terminal
(B163) No. 4 (+) — No. 6 (−):
Is the voltage 4.5 — 5.0 V?
