CAUTION: Vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).
When servicing vehicle, use care to avoid accidental air bag
deployment. SRS-related components are located in steering
column, center console, instrument panel and lower panel on
instrument panel. DO NOT use electrical test equipment on
these circuits. If necessary, deactivate SRS before servicing
components. See AIR BAG SERVICING article in APPLICATIONS &
IDENTIFICATION.
DESCRIPTION
Automatic transmission is a 4-speed electronically controlled
transmission. Solenoids that control shift changes are located in
valve body. Solenoids are controlled by a Transmission Control Module
(TCM). TCM receives information from various input devices and uses
this information to control shift solenoids for transmission shifting
and lock-up solenoid for torque converter lock-up.
An Overdrive (OD) switch is mounted on the shift lever. When
OD switch is depressed to ON position, transmission will shift into
4th gear when shift lever is in "D" position, and OD OFF light on
instrument panel will go off. When OD switch is released to OFF
position, transmission will shift into 3rd gear, and OD OFF light on
instrument panel will illuminate.
A pattern select switch is located near shift lever on center
console. Pattern select switch contains a NORMAL and a HOLD operating
position. When pattern select switch is depressed (HOLD position) with\
shift lever in Drive position, transmission starts in 2nd gear.
Upshifts and downshifts will occur at a higher vehicle speed than with
switch in NORMAL position. See MITSUBISHI R4AW3 & V4AW3 OVERHAUL
article. Indicator light on instrument panel indicates pattern select
switch is in HOLD position.
Transmission is equipped with a shift lock and key interlock
system. Shift lock system prevents shift lever from being moved from
Park unless brake pedal is depressed. Key interlock system prevents
ignition key from being moved from ACC to LOCK position on ignition
switch unless shift lever is in Park. See MITSUBISHI SHIFT LOCK
SYSTEMS article.

INTRODUCTION
This article contains information on repair and service of
basic hydraulic brake system. If vehicle is equipped with anti-lock
brakes, also see appropriate ANTI-LOCK article.
DESCRIPTION
Brake system consists of a master cylinder, vacuum power
brake booster, proportioning valve and self-adjusting assembly.
Montero has a Load-Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSPV). All models are
equipped with front disc brakes and either rear disc or drum brakes.
Parking brake assembly activates rear brakes.
BLEEDING BRAKE SYSTEM
BLEEDING PROCEDURES
Bleed brakes whenever hydraulic lines are opened or pedal
feels spongy. Bleed system in appropriate sequence. See
BRAKE LINE BLEEDING SEQUENCE table. Use only DOT 3 or DOT 4 approved
fluid and DO NOT mix fluid types.

ADJUSTMENTS
BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT, FREE PLAY & CLEARANCE
1) To measure brake pedal height, pull up carpet under brake
pedal. Measure distance between floor board and middle of brake pedal
pad surface with brake pedal released. See BRAKE PEDAL HEIGHT
SPECIFICATIONS table.
2) To adjust pedal height, separate connector from stoplight
switch, and loosen switch lock nut. Back-off switch so it does not
contact brake pedal arm. Loosen master cylinder push rod lock nut.
Adjust brake pedal height by rotating master cylinder push rod until
brake pedal height is within specification.

3) Tighten lock nut, and ensure brake pedal height is within
specification. Start engine to evacuate brake booster chamber. Stop
engine, and apply brake several times to remove vacuum from brake
booster.
4) Using hand pressure, depress brake pedal to measure free
play before resistance is felt. Free play distance for all models is
0.10-0.31" (3-8 mm). If distance is not within specification, it is
probably caused by excessive play between the brake pedal arm and the
clevis pin. Check and replace as necessary.
5) Start engine and apply 110 lbs. (490 N) of pressure to
brake pedal. With the carpet pulled back, measure the distance between
the brake pedal and the floorboard. If the distance is not 3.1-3.5"
(80-90 mm) check for air in brake hydraulic system, brake adjustment
or defective parking brake component or adjustment. Adjust or repair
as necessary.
LOAD-SENSING PROPORTIONING VALVE (LSPV)
Montero
1) Park vehicle on level surface. Remove excess weight from
vehicle. Make sure the lever is all the way towards the valve side.
Measure length of entire spring. See Fig. 1.
If spring length is not within specification, adjust spring
support until correct length is obtained. See LSPV SPRING LENGTH
table.
