Fail-Safe List

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Subaru BRZ. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Fail-safe function
    1. If a failure occurs on any of the bus (communication line) due to short circuit and other reasons, the fail safe function switches the process on the defective bus to a predefined bus to protect against malfunction.
    2. Behavior of each system in case of lost communication (For details, refer to the description of each system)
