| STEP | CHECK | YES | NO |
1.CHECK CURRENT DATA.
1) Start the engine.
2) Read the value of «Battery current value» using the Subaru Select Monitor.
NOTE:
For detailed operation procedures, refer to “Current Data Display For Engine”. Subaru Select Monitor">
Is the value of «Battery current value» −100 A or less?
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P1530 BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW">Go to Step 2.
Even if DTC is detected, 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 HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR CONNECTOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Disconnect the connector from ECM.
3) Disconnect the connector from the battery current sensor.
4) Measure the resistance of the harness between ECM connector and battery current sensor connector.
Connector & terminal
(B135) No. 22 — (B538) No. 3:
(B137) No. 11 — (B538) No. 1:
Is the resistance less than 1 ??
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P1530 BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW">Go to Step 3.
Repair the open circuit in the harness between ECM connector and battery current sensor connector.
3.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR CONNECTOR.
Measure the resistance between ECM connector and chassis ground.
Connector & terminal
(B135) No. 22 — Chassis ground:
(B137) No. 11 — Chassis ground:
Is the resistance 1 M? or more?
Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P1530 BATTERY CURRENT SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW">Go to Step 4.
Repair the short circuit to ground in the harness between ECM connector and battery current sensor connector.
4.CHECK FOR POOR CONTACT.
Check for poor contact between the ECM and battery current sensor connectors.
Is there poor contact of the ECM or battery current sensor connectors?
Repair any poor contact between the ECM and battery current sensor connectors.
Replace the battery current sensor. Battery Current & Temperature Sensor">
1. OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS
Detect the open or short circuit of battery current sensor.
Judge as NG if out of specification.
