01 QMR OF THE MONTH
We are pleased to announce this month’s Winner of QMR of the Month:
Perpetuo (Pete) Silan from
Farrish Subaru in Fairfax, VA
Pete submitted an excellent QMR outlining his highly-detailed
diagnosis and repair of a 2016MY Crosstrek which presented with a
customer concern of the back-up camera operating when the shifter
was in positions other than Reverse. He began his diagnosis by
verifying the condition as reported and confirming normal operation
of the Reverse lights. Starting at the rear gate, Pete began his
inspection of the related wiring and harness connections then worked
his way forward utilizing the split-half technique. He proceeded to
rule out the rear body wiring harness along with the inhibiter switch
after confirming the proper (Reverse) signal voltage was coming from
it. Further review of the wiring diagram led him to take a closer look
at the auto-dimming inside rear view mirror wiring. Pete determined
although he had the proper Reverse signal voltage coming to the rearview
mirror harness connector with it plugged in, the voltage remained
when the shifter was taken out of Reverse. After disconnecting
the mirror harness connector, the signal voltage switched on and
off normally when moving the shifter into or out of Reverse. Pete
determined the rear-view mirror assembly was shorted internally.
After swapping a known-good part for confirmation, normal back-up
camera operation was restored. Numerous high-quality photos were
provided with his report which followed along with his step-by-step
diagnosis of the condition.
In appreciation for going the extra mile and sharing his experience
with us, Pete will be receiving the following from his Field Service
Engineer:

06 C0271 AFTER PARK BRAKE ACTUATOR REPLACEMENT
DTC C0271 will be stored in memory after electric park brake actuator replacement until a Force Calibration
procedure is completed. If you encounter difficulty completing a Force Calibration and this DTC will not
clear, adjustment of the parking brake shoes may be necessary. Always refer the applicable Service Manual
for parking brake shoe adjustment.
07 GEN 3 CLOCK RELATED CONCERN
If a customer presents with a concern of the time not changing automatically as part of daylight savings time
and has a Harman head unit, the following should be confirmed depending upon the head unit involved:
• Base Unit- Confirm if the time is set to Manual or Auto. This unit displays time in two ways.
ᵒᵒ If the setting is Manual, the time adjusted using the i/Set and up/down buttons on the steering
wheel to manage the settings to the Multi-Function Display (MFD) in the combination meter.
ᵒᵒ If the setting is Auto, the time will match that of a Bluetooth Paired Phone. NOTE: in order for this
setting to work, the phone must be paired via Bluetooth, the phone time must be correct AND
the settings on the phone must allow for the transfer of messages (SMS messages) and user’s
phonebook from the phone to the head unit. Without that access on the phone side, the time will
not transfer or update. It should also be noted that, many times Technicians set the time during
PDI using their own phone and the Auto setting then remove their phone from the head unit.
This will leave the clock time set while in the Auto mode. When the customer pairs their phone
later, if they do not allow the message, transfer the clock will never pair with their phone. In this
case, the time on the phone may change but the head unit time will remain constant. This can
be resolved by deleting and pairing the customer’s phone again and allowing message transfer
from the phone to head unit.
• Mid Unit- See above for Base as settings are identical.
• High/ Navigation Unit- The High unit is different from the Base and Mid units as the Auto
setting receives the time from the GPS network rather than from the phone. Manual setting is the
same as Base and Mid units.
It’s important to review BOTH the head unit and phone settings to ensure the cause of the customer
concern is clearly understood so appropriate action may be taken to address it. Always explain the cause
and resulting adjustments necessary to correct it with the customer so they are aware of it should anything
change in the future such as a new phone purchase.
Please consult TSB 15-229-18 “Clock-Related Concerns and Troubleshooting” or articles in December 2016
Tech Tips “2017MY IMPREZA, DISPLAY AUDIO (NON-NAVIGATION), CLOCK NOT SYNCHRONIZED”
and “CLOCK SETTINGS”, if you need additional details. Also, regardless of the concern, please always
remember to complete a Harman Questionnaire.

07 2018-19MY LEGACY & OUTBACK- DTC B1650
When performing an All Systems check (or a check of the Airbag system) for DTCs, the Airbag System
may store a DTC B1650 and illuminate the Airbag warning light even though there is no warning light or
related customer concern. This condition has been confirmed when using SSM software version 16.1.1.
The cause of this anomaly is currently under investigation. There is no fault of the Airbag or ODS system
and no further diagnostics should be performed or repair attempt made. A simple cycling of the ignition
will turn off the warning light.
10 B2242 SET WITH NO TROUBLE SYMPTOM
Many Technicians have found B2242 stored with no apparent symptoms present. Upon circuit inspections,
Technicians have found there are no terminals in the indicated connectors when attempting to execute the
trouble tree. Vehicles equipped with a manual climate control system will always set B2242. This is because
there is no communication circuit between the audio/navigation unit and the manual HVAC control panel.
This is a normal condition and does not require diagnosis for vehicles equipped with a manual HVAC system.
This series features TechTIPS articles frequently referred to by Techline. This month’s feature from
July 2012 shows the procedure for cleaning spotted window glass.
12 CLEANING SPOTTED WINDOW GLASS
The Techline has received inquiries concerning
spotting, streaking and deposits on the glass which
normal cleaning methods like soap and water
or window cleaning products like Windex® have
not been able to remove. Below are pictures of
difficult to clean glass concerns where we have
discovered that the “Mr. Clean® MAGIC ERASER,
bath scrubber™” will effectively remove substances.
This product is effective for use on glass outside
and inside the car and may be used without harming
the glass, plastic and rubber trim and painted parts on the vehicle
surrounding the glazing areas. NOTE: during the cleaning process, all
residue from the “Mr. Clean® MAGIC ERASER, bath scrubber™” was
wiped clean and not allowed to dry on any surrounding surfaces. Also,
the C.R. Laurence Co. Inc. “Sparkle Clean” Cat No. SP101 works well to
remove these types of spots.

15 19MY REMOTE ENGINE START- PUSH BUTTON START
Vehicles & Remote Engine Start Kits Affected:
• 2019MY Ascent with Push Start Ignition – H001SXC000
• 2019MY Forester with Push Start Ignition – H001SSJ000
• 2019MY Impreza/Crosstrek with Push Start Ignition – H001SFL300
Understanding the Remote Engine Start (RES) 15 minute run time / 20 minute max run time features on
push start equipped vehicles: As soon as the RES system has been activated, the default 15 minute run
time counter begins. If 15 minutes expire before a take-over event (ready-to-drive mode) with the factory
Access key or a shut-down trigger event (hood open or RES deactivated via key fob), the RES system will
shut down. The RES system can be activated again, but for safety reasons, only for an additional 5 minutes
or a total of 20 minutes. The only method of resetting the RES 20 minute max run time counter is
to manually turn ON the ignition or start the vehicle utilizing the brake and START/STOP button
on the dashboard with the factory Access key present. If an attempt is made to activate the RES
system after 20 minutes of run time, but before a manual ignition cycle with the factory Access key (OFF
> ON > OFF), the RES system will confirm the 20 minute max run time has expired by honking the horn
and flashing the lights 3 times.
*IMPORTANT NOTE: The RES 20 minute max run time counter does NOT reset during a take-over event
(ready-to-drive mode) with the factory Access key. Take-over event / ready-to-drive mode is when the
driver enters the vehicle with the RES active, depresses the brake pedal, presses the Start/Stop button,
then drives away.
Solution: Confirm your customers understanding of the RES run time operation, particularly on 2019MY
push start equipped vehicles.

- CEL Doctor: The ANCEL AD310 is one of the best-selling OBD II scanners on the market and is recommended by Scotty Kilmer, a YouTuber and auto mechanic. It can easily determine the cause of the check engine light coming on, quickly read and clear diagnostic trouble codes, read live data & hard memory data, view freeze frame, I/M monitor readiness and collect vehicle information.
