1.CHECK EXHAUST SYSTEM. Check for gas leaks or air suction caused by loose or dislocated nuts and bolts, and open hole at exhaust pipes. NOTE: Check the following positions. • Between cylinder head and front exhaust pipe • Between front exhaust pipe and front catalytic converter • Between front catalytic converter and rear catalytic converter • Loose or improperly attached front oxygen (A/F) sensor or rear oxygen sensor | Is there any fault in exhaust system- | Repair or replace the exhaust system. General Description | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 |
2.CHECK WAVEFORM DATA ON THE SUBARU SELECT MONITOR (WHILE DRIVING). 1) Drive at a constant speed between 80 — 112 km/h (50 — 70 MPH). 2) After 5 minutes have elapsed in the condition of step 1), use the Subaru Select Monitor while still driving to read the waveform data. • At normal condition • At abnormal condition (numerous inversion) | Is a normal waveform displayed- | 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. | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 |
3.CHECK WAVEFORM DATA ON THE SUBARU SELECT MONITOR (WHILE IDLING). 1) Run the engine at idle. 2) In the condition of step 1), use the Subaru Select Monitor to read the waveform data. • At normal condition • At abnormal condition 1 (numerous inversion) • At abnormal condition 2 (noise input) | Is a normal waveform displayed- | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 | • The waveform is displayed at abnormal condition 1: Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 • The waveform is displayed at abnormal condition 2: Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 |
4.CHECK CATALYTIC CONVERTER. | Is the catalytic converter damaged- | Replace the catalytic converters RH and LH. Front Catalytic Converter Rear Catalytic Converter | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 |
5.CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR AND COUPLING CONNECTOR. | Has water entered the connector- | Completely remove any water inside. | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 |
6.CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN ECM AND REAR OXYGEN SENSOR CONNECTOR. 1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF. 2) Disconnect the connector from ECM and rear oxygen sensor LH. 3) Measure the resistance of harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor LH connector. Connector & terminal (E158) No. 57 — (E61) No. 3: (E158) No. 47 — (E61) No. 4: (E158) No. 59 — (E25) No. 3: (E158) No. 47 — (E25) No. 4: | Is the resistance less than 1 -- | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 | Repair the harness and connector. NOTE: In this case, repair the following item: • Open circuit in harness between ECM connector and rear oxygen sensor LH connector • Poor contact of coupling connector |
7.CHECK REAR OXYGEN SENSOR SHIELD. 1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF. 2) Expose the rear oxygen sensor LH connector body side harness sensor shield. 3) Measure the resistance between sensor shield and chassis ground. | Is the resistance less than 1 -- | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 | Repair the open circuit of rear oxygen sensor LH harness. |
8.CHECK ENGINE OIL AMOUNT AND EXHAUST GAS. 1) Check the engine oil amount. Engine Oil > INSPECTION 2) Check exhaust gas during idling. | Does the engine oil amount drop or white smoke emit from the muffler- | Check the engine, and repair the defective part. Engine Trouble in General > INSPECTION After engine is repaired, replace the catalytic converters RH and LH. Front Catalytic Converter Rear Catalytic Converter After the catalytic converter is replaced, perform step 2 to check the normal waveform is displayed, and then exit the procedure. | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 |
9.CHECK IGNITION SYSTEM. 1) Check the spark plug. Spark Plug > INSPECTION 2) Check the status of the ignition coil connector and the spark plug terminal. | Is there any fault in the ignition system- | After ignition system is repaired, replace the catalytic converters RH and LH. Front Catalytic Converter Rear Catalytic Converter After the catalytic converter is replaced, perform step 2 to check the normal waveform is displayed, and then exit the procedure. | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 |
10.CHECK FUEL SYSTEM. 1) Refer to and check the items in “Insufficient fuel supply to fuel injector” (except for “a. Fuel pump does not operate.”) and “Leakage or blow out of fuel”. Fuel System Trouble in General > INSPECTION 2) Check throttle body. Throttle Body > INSPECTION 3) Check intake manifold. Intake Manifold > INSPECTION | Is there any fault in the fuel system- | After fuel system is repaired, replace the catalytic converters RH and LH. Front Catalytic Converter Rear Catalytic Converter After the catalytic converter is replaced, perform step 2 to check the normal waveform is displayed, and then exit the procedure. | Diagnostic Procedure with Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) > DTC P0430 CATALYST SYSTEM EFFICIENCY BELOW THRESHOLD BANK 2 |
| Is any other DTC displayed- | Check the appropriate DTC using the “List of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)”. List of Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) After checking DTCs, replace the catalytic converters RH and LH. Front Catalytic Converter Rear Catalytic Converter After the catalytic converter is replaced, perform step 2 to check the normal waveform is displayed, and then exit the procedure. | Replace the rear oxygen sensor LH.
