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!(1)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 (fromrendering 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 52B
-Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of theSRS or any SRS-related component.

SERVICE BRAKES -Anti-lock Braking System Troubleshooting35-7
ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM TROUBLESHOOTlilGPARTICULAR PHENOMENA OF THE
LANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEMModels equipped with the anti-lock braking system
(ABS) may exhibit one or more of the following
phenomena from time to time, but none of these
are abnormal.
(1) A pulsing feeling in the brake pedal, or vibration
of the body or the steering wheel, when the
anti-lock braking system is activated by sudden
braking or by braking on a slippery road surface.
.9ctually, this phenomenon is an indication that
the anti-lock braking system is functioning nor-
mally.(2) When the vehicle speed reaches approximately
6 km/h (4 mph) after the engine is started and
the vehicle starts off (for the first time), a
whining motor noise may be heard from the
engine compartment if the vehicle is traveling in
a quiet place, but this noise is simply the result
of a self-check being made of the anti-lock
braking system operation.
TROUBLESHOOTING METHODSProblems related to the anti-lock braking system
(ABS) can be classified into two general categories:
problems in the electrical system and those in the
Lhydraulic system.For problems in the electrical system, the
self-diagnosis function is built into the electronic control
unit (E.C.U.) causing the ABS warning light to
illuminate as a warning to the driver. In this instance,
checks can be made by using the multi-use tester
and oscilloscope.
Problems in the hydraulic system (poor braking,
etc.) can be located in the same way as for ordinary
brakes. There is, however, the necessity to check to
determine whether the problem is related to ordin-
ary brake components or to the components related
to the ABS. To make this check, use the multi-use
tester.
HOW TO USE THE TROUBLESHOOTING
FLOW CHART(1) Using the flow chart, check the ABS warning
light light-up sequence. Read the diagnosis
codes and check the condition of braking opera-
tion.
(2) Following the check chart listed in the remedy
column, perform the checks. There are [Explana-
tion] and [Hint] in each check chart. Refer to
them when troubleshooting.
