SERVICE POINTS OF REASSEMBLY
13. INSTALLATION OF SYNCHRONIZER SPRING
Assemble the synchronizer spring so that its projection maybe engaged in the groove of the synchronizer key.
Take care to prevent the projections of the front and rearspring from sitting in the groove of the same key.
12. INSTALLATION OF 3RD-4TH SPEED SYNCHRONIZER
ASSEMBLY
(I) Install the synchronizer assembly so that the part that
has the small round indentation is in the oil groove atthe hub end.
NOTE
If the installation is in the opposite way, press-in mightnot be possible. This is because the edge of the hub
inner diameter spline at the part that has the small
round indentation is made to facilitate pressing in.
(2) Press the
3rd-4th speed synchronizer assembly onto
the input shaft using the special tool as illustrated.
CautionWhen installing the synchronizer assembly, make
sure that three synchronizer keys are seated cor-
rectly in respective grooves of the synchronizer
ring.(3) Check the 3rd speed gear rotates smoothly.
10. INSTALLATION OF BEARING SLEEVEUse the special tool as illustrated.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
(1)A Supplemental Restraint System (SRS), which uses a driver-side air bag, has been installed in the 3668GT.(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 beremoved/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 topersonal 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) MlTSUBISHI 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 the
ISRS or any SRS-related component.

AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE - Troubleshootincl23-19Based upon use of the troubleshooting
Checks should be made of fluid levels and
the condition of the ATF, as well as the
condition of the manual control cables;
adjustments should then be made if found
to be necessary.
If a presumption has been made that there
is an abnormal condition somewhere in
the electronic-control system, check the
fault code, in order to determine the
probable location of the problem, by using
a multi-use tester or voltmeter.
I
When the abnormal system is discovered,
check each element (sensors, etc.) one by
one, and make repairs as necessary.
IWhen the abnormal condition is presumed
to be in the oil-pressure-control system
When the result of the oil-pressure test
does not satisfy the specified pressure,
check each system at places related to the
valve body, check the oil-pressure pas-
sages for leakage, etc.
I
If the problem isunusually dirty ATF,
abnormal noises, oil leakage, or slippage of
the clutch or brakes, or an abnormal
condition of the transaxle itself, disassem-
ble and repair the transaxle.
TROUBLESHOOTINGM23EEAYFunctional malfunctions of the ELC4A/T can lead to other
problems, such as those described below:(I
) Improper maintenance and/or adjustments
(2) Malfunctions of the electronic control functions
(3) Malfunctions of mechanical functions
(4) Malfunctions of hydraulic control functions
(5) Malfunctions of engine performance
etc.
In order to properly determine (“Troubleshoot”) the source of
these malfunctions, it is first essential to methodically question
the user concerning the details of the problem, such as the
condition of the problem, the situation at the time the problem
occurred, and any other relevant information, all in as much
detail as possible. The user should also be asked whether or
not the problem has occurred more than once, and under what
conditions.
Subsequently, certain tests should be conducted in a certain
order, as described at the left.
