(2) Apply multipurpose grease to pinion gear and housing
bearing.(3) Wrap vinyl tape around the serrated part so that the oil
seal won’t be damaged when the pinion and valve
assembly is installed to the valve housing.
(4) Mount the pinion and valve assembly to the valve
housing.
18. INSTALLATION OF OIL SEALUsing a tool, press the oil seal into the valve housing.
CautionIn order to eliminate a seal malfunction at the valve
housing alignment surface, the upper surface of the oil
seal should project outward approximately 1 mm
(.040in.) from the housing edge surface.
11. INSTALLATION OF END PLUG
(1) Apply the semi-drying sealant to the threaded part of
the end plug.
Specified sealant: 3M ART Part No. 8663 or equiva-
lent(2) Secure the threaded portion of the end plug at two
places by using a punch.
. ADJUSTMENT OF TOTAL PINION TORQUE
(1) Position rack at its center. With special tool, tighten rack
support cover to 15 Nm (11
ft.lbs.1.(2) In neutral position, rotate pinion shaft clockwise one
turn/4
- 6 seconds with special tool. Return rack
support cover 30”
- 60” and adjust torque to the
standard value.
Standard value: 0.6
- 1.3 Nm (5 - 11 in.lbs.)
Caution1. When adjusting, set the standard value at its
highest value.2. Assure no ratcheting or catching when operat-
ing rack towards the shaft direction.
NOTEWhen it cannot be adjusted within the specified return
angle, check rack support cover components or replace.

(1) Swing the tie rod ten times hard.
(2) Point the tie rod end down, then attach a spring balance as
shown in the illustration to measure swing resistance
(swing torque).
Standard value: 9
- 55 N (2 - 12 Ibs.)
[0.5 - 3 Nm (4 - 26 in.lbs.)l(3) If the swing resistance exceeds the standard value, replace
the tie rod.
(4) If the swing resistance is less than the standard value, the

operates smoothly.
POWER CYLINDER SLIDE RESISTANCE CHECK
(1) Place the piston in a neutral position.
(2) Wrap a wire around the tie rod end, then measure slide
resistance with a spring balance as shown in the illustration.
Standard value: 67 N (15
Ibs.) or less
(3) If the slide resistance exceeds the standard value,
replace,the power cylinder.
(4) If the slide resistance is less than the standard value, the
power cylinder may be reused as long as it is not loose and
slides smoothly.

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 (from
rendering the SRS inoperative).
(2) Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.(3) MITSUBISHI dealer personnel must thoroughly review this manual, and especially its GROUP 52B

0When, with the ignition switch at the ON
position, a power-window (main or sub) switch
(“UP” side or “DOWN” side) is pressed, current
flows through sub-fusible link No. 8 and to the
power-window motor, thus causing the door
window glass to close or open.
When the “DOWN” side of the power-window
main switch at the driver’s side is pressed all the
way, it is locked at the pressed-in position, and
the power-window motor operates until the
door glass is fully opened.
When the power-window lock switch is set to
the “LOCK (ON)” position, the power-window
motor will not operate if any switch (main or sub)
other than at the driver’s side is operated.
A circuit breaker is provided in the power-window motor in order to prevent damage to the
motor as a result of excessive current.
For reference: Circuit breaker characteristics
Motor operation is restricted at high
temperatures
:
[20 - 25°C (68 - 77”F)].Current flow is cut by an initial current
occurs within 60 seconds if then left as
Iflow time of four to 40 seconds; resetis.The timer function of the ETACS permits the
power-window relay to remain ON for 30
seconds after the ignition switch is switched
OFF.If, during that period of time, the front door is
opened, the power-window relay is switched
OFF, and the power windows can no longer be
operated.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS1. All door windows cannot be opened or closed.
l Check sub-fusible link No. 8.
l Check the power-window relay.
l Check the power-window main switch.
2.One of the door windows cannot be opened or
closed.
(1) Neither of the power-window switches
(main or sub) operates.
l Check the power-window main switch.
lCheck the power-window motor for the
power window that does not operate.
(2) Either the power-window main switch or
sub switch does not operate.
lCheck the power-window switch for the
power window that does not operate.
3. The one-touch down switch function only does
not operate.
lReplace the power-window main switch.
4.The power window operation by ETACS control
after the ignition switch is switched OFF does
not function.
l Refer to
P.42-43.
