DTC C0119 G SENSOR OUTPUT SIGNAL MALFUNCTION

DTC DETECTING CONDITION:

Defective G sensor

TROUBLE SYMPTOM:

ABS does not operate.

WIRING DIAGRAM:

• LHD model

• RHD model

STEPCHECKYESNO

1.WHETHER A WHEEL TURNED FREELY OR NOT.

Have the wheels spun free of load when the vehicle is lifted up, or during driving on a rough road?

ABS is normal. Clear the memory.

2.CHECK OUTPUT OF G SENSOR USING SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.

1) Select “Current Data Display & Save” on the Subaru Select Monitor.

2) Read the Subaru Select Monitor display.

Is the reading indicated on display −1.2 — 1.2 m/s when the G sensor is horizontal?

3.CHECK OUTPUT OF G SENSOR USING SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2) Remove the console box.

3) Remove the G sensor from vehicle. (Do not disconnect the connector.)

4) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

5) Select “Current Data Display & Save” on the Subaru Select Monitor.

6) Read the Subaru Select Monitor display.

Is the value indicated on the screen 8.1 — 11.2 m/s when G sensor is inclined forward to 90°?

Replace G sensor.

4.CHECK OUTPUT OF G SENSOR USING SUBARU SELECT MONITOR.

Read the Subaru Select Monitor display.

Is the value indicated on the screen −8.1 — −11.2 m/s when G sensor is inclined backward to 90°?

Replace G sensor.

5.CHECK POOR CONTACT OF CONNECTOR.

Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

Is there poor contact of connectors between ABSCM&H/U and G sensor?

Repair the connector.

6.CHECK ABSCM&H/U.

1) Connect all connectors.

2) Clear the memory.

3) Perform the Inspection Mode.

4) Read the DTC.

Is the same DTC displayed?

Replace the ABSCM only.

7.CHECK FOR ANY OTHER DTC ON DISPLAY.

Is any other DTC displayed?

Check DTC using “List of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)”.

Temporary poor contact occurs.

8.CHECK OPEN CIRCUIT IN G SENSOR OUTPUT HARNESS AND GROUND HARNESS.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2) Disconnect the ABSCM&H/U connectors.

3) Measure the resistance between ABSCM&H/U connector terminals.

Connector & terminal

(B301) No. 21 — No. 10:

Is the resistance between 3.6 and 3.8 kΩ?

Repair the harness connector between the G sensor and ABSCM&H/U.

9.CHECK GROUND SHORT OF HARNESS.

Measure the resistance between the ABSCM&H/U connector and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(B301) No. 21 — Chassis ground:

Is the resistance 1 MΩ or more?

Repair the harness connector between the G sensor and ABSCM&H/U.

10.CHECK G SENSOR.

1) Remove the console box.

2) Remove the G sensor from vehicle.

3) Connect the connector to G sensor.

4) Connect the connector to ABSCM&H/U.

5) Turn the ignition switch to ON.

6) Measure the voltage between G sensor connector terminals.

Connector & terminal

(B292) No. 2 (+) — No. 3 (−):

Is the voltage 2.1 — 2.5 V when G sensor is in horizontal position?

Replace G sensor.

11.CHECK G SENSOR.

Measure the voltage between G sensor connector terminals.

Connector & terminal

(B292) No. 2 (+) — No. 3 (−):

Is the voltage 3.6 — 4.1 V when the G sensor is inclined forward to 90°?

Replace G sensor.

12.CHECK G SENSOR.

Measure the voltage between G sensor connector terminals.

Connector & terminal

(B292) No. 2 (+) — No. 3 (−):

Is the voltage 0.5 — 1.0 V when G sensor is inclined back 90°?

Replace G sensor.

13.CHECK ABSCM&H/U.

1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.

2) Connect all connectors.

3) Clear the memory.

4) Perform the Inspection Mode.

5) Read the DTC.

Is the same DTC displayed?

Replace the ABSCM only.

14.CHECK FOR ANY OTHER DTC ON DISPLAY.

Is any other DTC displayed?

Check DTC using “List of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)”.

Temporary poor contact occurs.
