LIGHTING SYSTEM > Turn Signal Light & Hazard Light Unit
INSPECTION
1. Disconnect the connector of the turn signal & hazard unit.
2. Measure the voltage between the turn signal & hazard unit connector and the chassis ground.
Preparation tool:
Circuit tester
Terminal No. | Inspection conditions | Standard | Connection diagram |
4 (+) — Chassis ground (−) | Always | 10 — 14 V |

1 (+) — Chassis ground (−)
IG OFF > ON
Less than 1 V > 10 — 14 V
Repair or replace the harness if the inspection result is not within the standard value.
3. Measure the resistance between the turn signal & hazard unit connector and the chassis ground.
Terminal No. | Inspection conditions | Standard | Connection diagram |
7 — Chassis ground | Always | Less than 1 ? |

Repair or replace the harness if the inspection result is not within the standard value.
4. Connect the turn signal & hazard unit connector.
5. Measure the voltage between turn signal & hazard unit and chassis ground.
Terminal No. | Input/Output | Inspection conditions | Standard |
6 (+) — Chassis ground (−) | Input | Turn signal switch (right) OFF > ON | 9 V or more > less than 1 V |
5 (+) — Chassis ground (−) | Input | Turn signal switch (left) OFF > ON | 9 V or more > less than 1 V |
8 (+) — Chassis ground (−) | Input | Hazard switch OFF > ON | 9 V or more > less than 1 V |
2 (+) — Chassis ground (−) | Output | Turn signal switch (right) OFF > ON | Repeat less than 1 V > less than 1 V ←> more than 9 V at 60 to 120 times per minute. |
3 (+) — Chassis ground (−) | Output | Turn signal switch (left) OFF > ON | Repeat less than 1 V > less than 1 V ←> more than 9 V at 60 to 120 times per minute. |
2 (+) — Chassis ground (−) | Output | Hazard switch OFF > ON | Repeat less than 1 V > less than 1 V ←> more than 9 V at 60 to 120 times per minute. |
3 (+) — Chassis ground (−) | Output | Hazard switch OFF > ON | Repeat less than 1 V > less than 1 V ←> more than 9 V at 60 to 120 times per minute. |
Replace the turn signal & hazard unit if the inspection result is not within the standard value.

Engine overheating
WARNING
Never remove the radiator cap of your Subaru Ascent until the engine has been
completely switched off and allowed to cool down fully. When the engine is hot,
the cooling system remains under high pressure.
Opening the cap prematurely may cause a sudden release of pressurized, boiling ...
