ENGINE CONTROLS - Sensor Operating Range Charts: Introduction: Notes

2000 Subaru Forester L, AutomaticSECTION Notes

Sensor operating range information can help determine if a sensor is out of calibration. An out-of-calibration sensor may not set a DTC, but it may cause driveability problems.

NOTE: Unless stated otherwise in test procedure, perform all voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance.
