SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
(1)A Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), which uses a driver-side air bag, has been installed in the 3000GT.(2)The SRS includes the following components: impact sensors, SRS diagnosis unit: SRS warning light, air bagmodule, clock spring, interconnecting wiring. Other SRS-related components (that may have to be
removed/installed in connection with SRS service or maintenance) are indicated in the table of contents byan asterisk (*).
WARNING!(I)Improper service or maintenance of any component of the SRS, or any SRS-related component, can lead to
personal injury or death to service personnel (from inadvertent firing of the air bag) or to the driver (from
rendering the SRS inoperative).
(2) Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at anauthorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
(3) MITSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP
528 -Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of theSRS or any SRS-related component.

TROUBLESHO.OTlNGMlBEBBS
EXPLANATION OF TROUBLESHOOTING PROCE-
DURES
Effective troubleshooting procedures for MPI system problems
are given below.1. Verification of trouble symptom
lReproduce trouble symptom and verify the characteris-
tics of the trouble and the conditions (engine condition,driving conditions, etc.) under which it is produced.
2. Reading of self-diagnosis code
l Read self-diagnosis code and if a malfunction code is
output, locate and correct the trouble referring to the
diagnosis chart.3. Estimation of the causes of trouble and setting of check
items
lReferring to the Check Chart, verify the check items andchecking order for the trouble symptom.
4. Inspection of engine control unit input/output signals
l Using the multi-use tester or oscilloscope, check the
engine control unit input/output signals.
l If the signals are normal, judge the sensor input/
actuator control as normal and proceed to check the
input/output signals of the next check item.
5. Inspection of MPI system component harness
l If the engine control unit input/output signals are
abnormal, check the MPI system component body
harness and repair as necessary.
lAfter repair, check the engine control unit input/output
signals again. If they are normal, proceed to check theinput/output signals of the next check item.
6. Inspection of individual MPI system components
lIf the body harness is normal but the engine control unit
input/output signals are abnormal, check individual MPI
system components and repair or replace as necessary.l After repair or replacement, check the engine control
unit input/output signals again. If they are normal,
proceed to check the input/output signals of the next
check item.7. Re-inspection and repair of trouble symptom
l If the harness inspection and individual component
inspection results are normal but the engine control unitinput/output signals are abnormal, re-examine the
causes of trouble referring to the troubleshooting hintsand the checks and repairs included in other groups.
8. Verification and prevention of reoccurrence after repair
lPerform tests to see if the same problems occur againand make sure that the same problems will not be
repeated.
lRemove the true causes of the trouble to prevent its
reoccurrence.

Malfunctionl
If the sensor impressed voltage is abnormal, check the wire
for an open circuit or short-circuit to ground and repair as
necessary. If the wire is normal, replace the engine control
unit and check again.l To check the voltage, use a digital voltmeter (or circuit
tester) as a rule.
[However, use an analog voltmeter for checking the power
transistor drive voltage.]ENGINE WARNING LIGHT (MALFUNCTION IN-
DICATOR LIGHT)
Among the self-diagnosis items, a malfunction indicator lightcomes on to notify the driver of the emission control items
when an irregurality is detected.
However, when an irregular signal returns to normal and theengine control unit judges that it has returned to normal, the
malfunction indicator light goes out.
Moreover, when the ignition switch is turned off, the light goes
out. Even if the ignition switch is turned on again, the light doesnot come on until the irregularity is detected.
Here, immediately after the ignition switch is turned on, the
malfunction indicator light is lit for 5 seconds to indicate that
the malfunction indicator light operates normally.
ITEMS INDICATED BY THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR
LIGHT
Engine control unit
Oxygen sensor
Air flow sensor
Intake air temperature sensor
Throttle position sensor
Engine coolant temperature sensor
Crank angle sensor
Top dead center sensor
Barometric pressure sensor
Detonation sensor
Ignition timing adjustment signal
Injector
EGR system
Ignition coil, power transistor unit
Caution
The malfunction indicator light comes on when the line ofthe ignition timing adjustment terminal is shorted to
ground. Therefore, the light also comes on when the
ignition timing adjustment terminal is grounded to adjust
the ignition timing, but this does not show any abnormal-
ity.

13-12FUEL SYSTEM - Troubleshooting
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT INSPECTION
(1) Check that when the ignition switch is turned on, the lightilluminates for about 5 seconds and then goes out.
(2) If the light does not illuminate, check for open circuit in
dharness, blown fuse and blown bulb.
SELF-DIAGNOSIS
The engine control unit monitors the input/output signals (some
signals at all times and the others under specified conditions) ofthe engine control unit.
When it is noticed that an irregularity has continued for a
specified time or longer from when the irregular signal is
initially monitored, passing a certain number, the engine controlunit judges that an irregularity has occurred, memorizes the
malfunction code, and outputs the signal to the self-diagnosis
output terminal.
There are 21 diagnosis items, including the normal state, andthe diagnosis results can be read out with a voltmeter or
multi-use tester.Moreover, since memorization of the malfunction codes is
backed up directly by the battery, the diagnosis results are
memorized even if the ignition key is turned off. The malfunc-
tion codes will, however, be erased when the battery terminalor the engine control unit connector is disconnected.
The malfunction code can also be erased by turning on the
ignition switch and sending the malfunction code erase signalfrom the multi-use tester to the engine control unit.
CautionIf the sensor connector is disconnected with the ignition
_ _switch turned on, the malfunction code is memorized. Ind
this case, send the malfunction code erase signal from themulti-use tester to the engine control unit or disconnect
the battery terminal
(-) for 10 seconds or more, and the
diagnosis memory will be erased.
The 21 diagnosis items are provided as follows, and if plural
items are activated, they are all indicated sequentially from the
smallest code number.
CautionThe malfunction code for the ignition timing adjustment
signal is output when the line of the ignition timing
adjustment terminal is shorted to ground. Therefore, the
malfunction code is also output when the ignition timing
adjustment terminal is grounded to adjust the ignition
timing, but this does not show any abnormality.
