01 QMR OF THE MONTH
We are pleased to announce this month’s Winner of QMR of the Month:
David Jodat from
Subaru City of Milwaukee in Milwaukee, WI.
David’s excellent QMR detailed his diagnosis and repair of a new
2019MY Impreza (19 miles) which prior to delivery, was experiencing
driveability concerns along with both the Check Engine and AT
Temp lights flashing. His thorough report began with describing the
condition as the transmission slipping and feeling like it was starting
out in a much higher ratio than normal. After easily duplicating the
condition, David began his diagnosis by looking into the list of 3 stored
transmission DTCs, all relating to a different shaft speed sensor.
He then connected the SSM4, selected the PIDs for the sensors
in question along with front wheel speed to help with his diagnosis.
During the brief road test, David identified all 3 shaft sensors were
unresponsive while the wheel speed data would rise and drop
normally. He then turned to the transmission wiring diagram and
identified a common power supply feed for all 3 sensors although,
each had its own separate ground. This led David to start tracing
the sensor power supply wiring. Using the split-half technique, he
was able to track down two separate problems. The first was a
broken locking tab on the outside of connector E115 along with a
poor connection found at Pin 19 of connector T15 (which connects to
E115). Because of the broken locking tab, David proceeded to order
and install a new engine wiring harness which repaired the vehicle.
His QMR also included numerous quality photos with call-outs, SSM
data snapshots and a video showing how he was able to simulate the
poor Pin 19 sensor power supply connection.
In appreciation for going the extra mile and sharing his experience
with us, David will be receiving the following:
A $500.00 Snap-On gift card.

01 USE OF SILICONE SPRAY PRECAUTIONS
Techline continues to receive reports of aerosol products containing silicone being used during diagnosis
and repair. We are providing the following information regarding the use of lubricating sprays containing
silicone (WD-40®, Armor-All®, Silicone Spray, etc.). When silicone attaches to an electrical contact point
such as a relay circuit, switch or harness connector, silicon dioxide (SiO2) is formed by the heat generated
during current flow which can result in electrical contact failure. Eventually, there is a possibility electrical
components or connections could fail as a result. Therefore, when cleaning car interiors, lubricating
weather stripping or repairing noises it is imperative sprays containing silicone are not used.
01 BRAKE LAMP SWITCH REPLACEMENT WEB BASED TRAINING

07 2019MY FORESTER MANUAL OVERRIDE FOR POWER REAR GATE
When the power rear gate system senses a malfunction and the gate is
closed, the vehicle will chirp three times and the gate will not open. To
open the gate, simply press and hold the opener button on the gate until
the latch releases. The gate can then be manually opened and closed.
Initialization information for the power rear gate can be found on pages
148-149 of the Owner’s Manual.

07 2019MY WRX, TELEMATICS “i” BUTTON STICKING
Recently, there have been some QMRs received
describing the blue “i” button for the Telematics
system sticking. Thanks to the hard work of our Port
Quality Assurance teams, a couple of causes for this
condition have been identified which we would like
to pass along.
If you encounter a 2019MY WRX with the blue “i”
button sticking or loose, it most likely won’t require
replacement of the switch or housing to repair. This
condition is usually caused one of two concerns. In
the first condition, one or both of the screws securing the Telematics switch to the housing may not be fully
tightened (as shown in the photo above) which can allow the switch to move.
The second concern involves one of the other harness connectors above the housing being out of position
and pushing down on the switch. This results in the button getting hung up on the edge of the opening in
the housing. This can generally be repaired by simply rotating the connector that is pressing down on the
switch as shown below.
Retaining Screw Not
Fully Tightened.

12 2019MY ASCENT, SPARE TIRE HOIST PRECAUTIONS
When using the Ascent’s spare tire hoist, it is IMPORTANT to use ONLY the spare tire lug wrench included
with the vehicle to operate it. NEVER use an electric or air-operated power tool to operate the hoist as
damage to the internal mechanism and / or the hoist cable can result preventing the spare tire from being
secured fully in place against the underside of the vehicle body. A customer concern of a “clunking” noise
may also result from this condition along with sidewall damage to the spare and corresponding vehicle
underbody / paint rub-through.

14 WUE-90 STOP LAMP SWITCH RECALL, SPECIAL TOOL TIP
A Technician submitted a QMR with an excellent suggestion to prevent the WUE-90 adjustment nut special
tool from being left behind after completing the repair procedure:
Simply drill a hole near the handle end of the tool and install an unused lanyard as shown above. The
brighter color the better but, we liked the choice used here too!

15 TELEMATICS OPERATIONAL CONCERNS ACCOMPANIED BY DTC B2A15
There have been a significant number of inquiries regarding DTC B2A15 and Telematics system operation.
Customers usually report a concern of the red Telematics LED being illuminated, either currently or in the
past. In a case where the red LED is currently not illuminated, the customer may also have an email telling
them STARLINK has detected their services may not be operating correctly and recommending they return
to the retailer to have the system diagnosed. Once at the retailer, if the LED is green, the system is usually
operating within manufacturer specification BUT, there may be a DTC B2A15 in history.
The first step to any B2A15 concern investigation is to ask the customer if they are using or have used any
kind of third-party device like an insurance company’s driver monitoring or OBD-II port-connected device.
There are more and more products hitting the market every day meant to plug into the OBD II connector
to monitor and collect data from the vehicle.
If an OBD-II port-connected device is being used and following a detailed customer interview, secure
customer permission to remove the device and confirm operation of all the remote Telematics services
as well as both the “i” and SOS buttons. If all services are currently performing within manufacturers
specifications, clear the DTC and inform the customer to consult the STARLINK Service agreement terms
and conditions. Below is the section copied from the Agreement applicable to this situation.
“Subaru cannot guarantee the performance of any devices not supplied by Subaru of America,
Inc or its affiliates. Additionally, third-party devices (such as some driver monitoring or third-party
OBD-II port devices), may interfere with the proper function of certain vehicle features, including
the Subaru STARLINK® system. Customers may, at their discretion, use those devices, but if they
create interference with the vehicle or the STARLINK® system’s operation, the system may not
operate properly, and the warranty may not offer relief for the conditions that result from such usage.”
15 HARMAN AUDIO / NAVIGATION SYSTEM CONCERNS
The following three TIPS involve conditions reported involving Harman Audio / Navigation systems. These
conditions will also be added to the related TSB 15-221-18R.
Condition 1: Map Display “Whiteout”
• Map display is either white (blank)
or, an incomplete screen (no roads)
is displayed.
• “Route Calculation Unsuccessful”
message is displayed when trying
to calculate a route.
Cause: If a MOTA (Map Over the Air
Update) was performed or attempted
previously, the state map data may have become corrupted. This can occur due to weak a Wi-Fi signal
during MOTA causing the state to disappear (appear white). Updating the map (again) successfully
using a strong Wi-Fi signal or via USB will restore the missing map data.

May 2019 TechTIPS Page 6 of 10
15 HARMAN AUDIO / NAVIGATION SYSTEM CONCERNS (CONTINUED)
Condition 2: Map display not going into “night” mode in low light (night time / dark) conditions
Possible Causes:
• Map display setting may be set to “Day” instead of “Night” or “Auto” as shown below. From the
Settings menu, select Map Display and either “Auto” or “Night”.
• If the instrument panel illumination control knob is set to
MAX brightness (all the way up), the map display will not
change regardless if “Auto” or “Night” mode is selected in
Settings. Lower the illumination control knob as shown in
the illustration and “Auto” or “Night” mode operation will be
restored.
Condition 3: Wrong Head Unit (H/U) part numbers being ordered
Several reports have been received describing operational issues occurring after installation of the
replacement H/U. In some cases, further investigation revealed an incorrect (or different than the original)
part number H/U was ordered and installed. When ordering an exchange unit, there are Exchange
Component Identification bulletins for every model year posted to STIS. These are an excellent resource
to use in combination with the Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC). In the event a new unit is being installed
(e.g. for a new, in-stock vehicle), always order the most up-to-date replacement part number H/U based
on the specific VIN being repaired using the exchange portal and indicate the new unit is required for an
in-stock unit.
