    Is the battery OK?

    Yes  : Go to  2.

    No  : Charge or replace the battery.

  2. CHECK DTC  .

    Read the DTC of [Power Window (Passenger)] using the Subaru Select Monitor. Refer to POWER WINDOW (DIAGNOSTICS)>DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) .

    Are any DTCs displayed? (Current malfunction)

    Yes  : Perform the diagnosis for the displayed DTCs. Refer to POWER WINDOW (DIAGNOSTICS)>DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)>LIST .

    No  : Go to  3.

  3. CHECK [Window Lock Switch Signal] (DATA MONITOR)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    2. Using the Subaru Select Monitor. check the following items in the [Data monitor] of [Power Window (Passenger)]. Refer to POWER WINDOW (DIAGNOSTICS)>DATA MONITOR .
      • Window Lock Switch Signal

    Is [Unlock] displayed?

    No  : Unlock the window lock to operate.

  4. CHECK [Power Supply Voltage] (DATA MONITOR)  .
    1. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
    2. Using the Subaru Select Monitor. check the following items in the [Data monitor] of [Power Window (Passenger)]. Refer to POWER WINDOW (DIAGNOSTICS)>DATA MONITOR .
      • Power Supply Voltage

    Is the displayed voltage approximately 10.0 [V] or more?

    Yes  : Go to  5.

    No  : Replace the front regulator & motor assembly (passenger's side). Refer to GLASS/WINDOWS/MIRRORS>FRONT REGULATOR AND MOTOR ASSEMBLY .

  5. CHECK [Operation Enable Signal] (DATA MONITOR)  .
