INTRODUCTION:
This Service Information bulletin provides a VERY IMPORTANT procedure to follow when disconnecting the Negative/Ground (-) battery cable. The Crosstrek PHEV utilizes a special battery sensor between the eye terminal end of the cable and the battery post.
SERVICE PROCEDURE / INFORMATION:
In the past, the recommended procedure has been to disconnect the negative cable from the battery sensor leaving the sensor attached to the battery post. This new-style sensor requires the negative cable to stay attached and the cable/sensor “assembly” to be removed from the battery post as shown below.
NOTE: If the battery ground cable is removed from the sensor, the sensor MUST be replaced.
VERY CRITICAL: Never over-tighten the 10mm hex nut at the battery terminal connection beyond the torque specifi cation of 6 Nm (4.4 ft. lbs. / 53 inch-pounds)
