DTC P2017: TGV Position Sensor/Switch Circuit High Bank 1: Notes

DTC detecting condition: 

Immediately at fault recognition

Trouble symptom: 

• Improper idling
• Engine stall
• Poor driving performance

Wiring diagram: 

Engine Electrical System Refer to WIRING SYSTEM (IMPREZA MODEL)>ENGINE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM>WIRING DIAGRAM . Refer to WIRING SYSTEM (CROSSTREK MODEL (EXCEPT FOR HEV))>ENGINE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM>WIRING DIAGRAM .

1. Start the engine.
2. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, read the value in [TGV Position Sensor R].
   NOTE: For detailed operation procedures, refer to "Data Monitor". Refer to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO (EXCEPT FOR HEV))>DATA MONITOR .

   Is the value of [TGV Position Sensor R] 5 V or more?

   Yes: 

   Go to  2.

   No: 

   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.

1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Disconnect the connector from tumble generator valve actuator RH.
3. Start the engine.
4. Using the Subaru Select Monitor, read the value in [TGV Position Sensor R].
   NOTE: For detailed operation procedures, refer to "Data Monitor". Refer to ENGINE (DIAGNOSTICS) (H4DO (EXCEPT FOR HEV))>DATA MONITOR .

   Is the value of [TGV Position Sensor R] 5 V or more?

   Yes: 

   Repair the short circuit to power in harness between ECM connector and tumble generator valve actuator RH connector.

   No: 

   Go to  3.

1. Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2. Measure the resistance of harness between tumble generator valve actuator RH connector and engine ground.

   Connector & terminal 

   (E55) No. 2 - Engine ground:

   Is the resistance less than 5 Ω?

   Yes: 

   Go to  4.

   No: 

   Repair the harness and connector.

   NOTE: In this case, repair the following item:

   • Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and tumble generator valve actuator RH connector
   • Poor contact o (ECM connector

Check for poor contact of tumble generator valve actuator RH connector.

Is there poor contact of the tumble generator valve actuator RH connector?

Yes: 

Repair the poor contact of tumble generator valve actuator RH connector.

No: 

Replace the tumble generator valve actuator RH. Refer to FUEL INJECTION (FUEL SYSTEMS) (H4DO (EXCEPT FOR HEV))>TUMBLE GENERATOR VALVE ACTUATOR .
