WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Subaru WRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Check that the CPC pressure sensor has no deformation, cracks or other damages.
Connect the dry-cell battery positive terminal to terminal No. 3 and the dry-cell battery negative terminal to terminal No. 1, and connect the circuit tester positive terminal to terminal No. 2 and the circuit tester negative terminal to terminal No. 1.
NOTE:
- Use new dry-cell batteries.
- Using a circuit tester, check that the initial voltage of each dry-cell battery is 1.6 V or more. And also check that the voltage of three batteries in series is between 4.8 - 5.2 V.
- For power supply, 5 V DC constant voltage power source can also be used.

Check the voltage at a normal atmospheric pressure.

NOTE:

The atmospheric pressure at higher altitude is lower than normal. Therefore, the voltage is lower than the standard value.

Terminal No.	Standard
2 (+) - 1 (-)	Approx. 3.6 V (when 25°C (77°F))

Connect the Mighty Vac to the pressure port (A) of CPC pressure sensor.

Check the voltage when generating vacuum using Mighty Vac.
CAUTION:
Do not apply a vacuum that exceeds -50 kPa (-0.5 kg/cm ² , -7.2 psi). Doing so may damage the CPC pressure sensor.

When to See a Mechanic

Stop DIY work and contact a certified mechanic immediately if any of the following apply:

• You smell fuel, burning insulation, or see smoke.

• Brakes feel soft, pull hard to one side, or make grinding noises.

• The engine overheats, stalls repeatedly, or misfires under load.

• You are missing required tools, torque specs, or safe lifting equipment.

• You are not confident in the next step or safety outcome.
