1998 ENGINE PERFORMANCE
Mitsubishi - Pin Voltage Charts
Diamante, Eclipse, Galant, Mirage, Montero, Montero Sport,
3000GT
INTRODUCTION
NOTE: Unless stated otherwise in testing procedures, perform all
voltage tests using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a
minimum 10-megohm input impedance. Voltage readings may vary
slightly due to battery condition or charging rate.
Pin voltage charts are supplied to reduce diagnostic time.
Checking pin voltages at the PCM connector determines whether it is
receiving and transmitting proper voltage signals. Diagnostic charts
may also help determine if PCM harness is shorted or open.
TEST PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Shorting positive DVOM lead between connector terminal and
ground could damage vehicle wiring, sensor and PCM.
1) If necessary, remove Powertrain Control Module (PCM) to
access harness connector. For PCM location, see PCM LOCATION table.
Leave PCM connectors connected.
2) Using DVOM, backprobe terminals. Connect positive DVOM
lead to appropriate PCM terminal. Connect negative DVOM lead to PCM
ground terminal. For PCM terminal identification, see appropriate
chart. See Figs. 1-24.
3) All measurements are applicable to vehicle at normal
operating temperature at sea level. Unless otherwise noted, engine is
idling when specification requires engine running. Ensure transmission
shift selector is in Neutral or Park (as applicable). If DVOM displays\
measurement that is not within specification, see G - TESTS W/CODES
article.

Mitsubishi - Power Mirrors
Eclipse, Galant, Mirage, Montero, Montero Sport, 3000GT
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Electric remote control mirrors are controlled by a dual-
control switch mounted on driver's door, dash or center console
depending on model. Left/right switch directs current to desired
mirror. Horizontal/vertical switch directs current to electric motor
in mirror assembly, controlling up/down and left/right adjustment.
Heated mirrors are controlled by defogger relay.
TROUBLE SHOOTING

SUN ROOF - POWER
1998 Mitsubishi Montero
1998 ACCESSORIES & EQUIPMENT
Mitsubishi - Power Sun Roofs
Eclipse, Galant, Montero, Montero Sport, 3000GT
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Sun roof is actuated by an overhead console-mounted switch.
Sun roof motor, located near switch, moves sun roof panel by means of
drive cables. If necessary, sun roof can be closed manually using
manual closure wrench stored in vehicle's tool pouch.
On vehicles equipped with Electronic Timer Alarm Control
System (ETACS) ECU, sun roof can be operated up to 30 seconds after
ignition switch is turned to OFF position.
Sun roof motor incorporates a safety feature that initially
limits opening or closing of roof glass panel. Sun roof will not fully
close from fully open position without first releasing and then
depressing slide switch during operation. Sun roof initially stops
about 8" short of fully closed position.
