Check Keyless Entry Control Module

  1. CHECK BODY INTEGRATED UNIT  .

    Read the DTC using Subaru Select Monitor.

    NOTE: For detailed procedures, refer to "PC application help for Subaru Select Monitor".

    Is DTC U1500 "KEYLESS UART COM. MALFUNCTION" displayed?

    Yes: Go to  2.

    No: Keyless entry control module is normal.

  2. CHECK POWER SUPPLY  .
    1. Disconnect the keyless entry control module connector.
    2. Measure the voltage between keyless entry control module connector and chassis ground.

      Connector & terminal 

      Model without tire pressure monitoring system 

      (R80) No. 4 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

      Model with tire pressure monitoring system 

      (R221) No. 6 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

    Is the voltage 10 V or more?

    Yes: Go to  3.

    No: Check the harness for open or short circuits between the keyless entry control module and the fuse.

  3. CHECK POWER SUPPLY (MODEL WITH TPMS ONLY)  .

    Measure the voltage between connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    (R221) No. 4 (+) - Chassis ground (-):

    IGN OFF: 0 V

    IGN ON: 10 V or more?

    Yes: Go to  4.

    No: Check the harness for open or short circuits between the keyless entry control module and the fuse.

  4. CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT  .

    Measure the resistance between keyless entry control module connector and chassis ground.

    Connector & terminal 

    Model without tire pressure monitoring system 

    (R80) No. 7 - Chassis ground:

    Model with tire pressure monitoring system 

    (R221) No. 5 - Chassis ground:

    Is the resistance less than 10 Ω?

    Yes: Go to  5.

    No: Repair or replace the harness.

  5. CHECK KEYLESS ENTRY CONTROL MODULE CIRCUIT  .
    1. Disconnect the body integrated unit connector.
    2. Check the harness between keyless entry control module and body integrated unit.

      Connector & terminal 

      Model without tire pressure monitoring system 

      (i171) No. 11 - (R80) No. 3:

      Model with tire pressure monitoring system 

      (i171) No. 11 - (R221) No. 11:

    Is harness normal?

    Yes: Replace the keyless entry control module.

    No: Repair or replace the harness.
