Subaru Crosstrek Service Manual: Procedure

When parts related to the auto headlight beam leveler system are removed or replaced, perform the following procedures to initialize or reinitialize.

NOTE:

Before performing initialization or reinitialization, check the following:

• The vehicle is parked on a level surface.

• The inflation pressure of tires is correct.

• The vehicle does not have load.

• Vehicle’s fuel tank is fully filled.

• Refer to the following chart to determine whether to initialize or reinitialize.

• When the auto headlight beam leveler CM was replaced with a part from another vehicle.

• When suspension parts have been removed or replaced.

(Crossmember, front arm, sub frame, lateral link, housing, strut etc.)

• When the vehicle height sensor has been replaced or removed.

If the indicator does not flash three times or the headlight beam does not operate, it can be assumed that there is an open circuit or faulty wiring in the harness of the auto headlight beam leveler CM, vehicle height sensors or headlight assembly. Perform inspection and repair according to the inspection results, then perform initialization/reinitialization again.
