Blind Spot Detection/Rear Cross Traffic Alert (DIAGNOSTICS) > Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
DTC B2300 REAR RADAR CIRCUIT LOW
DTC detecting condition:
• Short circuit to ground in the harness between radar sensor and outer mirror assembly
• Ground short circuit of the harness in outer mirror assembly module (Malfunction of the outer mirror assembly)
• Defective radar sensor
Trouble symptom:
• All functions of BSD/RCTA stop.
• Fail icon is displayed in the combination meter LCD display.
• Failure-related notification is displayed for approx. two seconds on LCD display in the combination meter.
Wiring diagram:
NOTE:
For the coupling connector, refer to “WIRING SYSTEM”.

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.
3.CHECK OPERATION CHECK MODE.
Perform the system operation check mode «Door mirror indicator active test» from «Subaru Rear Vehicle Detection(RH)» or «Subaru Rear Vehicle Detection(LH)». System Operation Check Mode">
Does the indicator illuminate?
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.

4.CHECK HARNESS (GROUND SHORT CIRCUIT).
1) Disconnect the radar sensor connector.
2) Disconnect the outer mirror assembly connector.
3) Using a tester, measure the resistance between radar sensor connector (harness side) and the chassis ground.

Repair the short to ground in harness between radar sensor connector and outer mirror assembly connector.
5.CHECK CONNECTOR.
Check the radar sensor connector and the outer mirror assembly connector.
Is there any fault? (Insecure connection, poor contact, etc.)
Repair the connector.
