SERVICE PROCEDURE / INFORMATION
NOTES:
SOA now highly recommends connecting the Midtronics GR8 Diagnostic Battery Charger to the
vehicle and utilizing the Power Supply Mode feature anytime a vehicle control module is being
reprogrammed. Once the GR8 is connected to the vehicle, as long as the battery is fully charged, it
takes less than 3 minutes to boot-up the charger, select the Power Supply Mode, and have the battery
voltage stabilized and ready for reprogramming.
VERY IMPORTANT: This information is applicable to the Midtronics GR8 Diagnostic Battery
Charger ONLY. It does not apply to any other brand / type of “generic” battery charger whatsoever.
ONLY the GR8 and its Power Supply Mode feature has been tested and approved by Subaru of
America, Inc. (SOA).
•
If the GR8 indicates the vehicle’s battery must be charged, charge the battery using the GR8
before proceeding to reprogram the vehicle while using the Power Supply Mode.
•
Control module failures as a result of battery discharge during reprogramming are not a
matter for warranty. Should any DTCs reset after the reprogramming update is performed,
diagnose per the procedure outlined in the applicable Service Manual.
