2003 MITSUBISHI SHOGUN warning lights

Turn-signal indication lamps - green
ED52A-BB
These indication lamps blink on and off when a
turn-signal lamp is operating.NOTE
If the blinking is too fast, the cause may be a faulty
turn-signal connection or a blown lamp bulb.Hazard warning indication lamps - green
ED30A-A
When the hazard warning lamp switch is pressed,
all turn-signal lamps will flash on and off continu-
ously.Engine oil level warning lamp-amber
ED26A-D
This lamp illuminates when the ignition switch is
turned to the “ON” position, and goes off after theengine has started. If it lights up while the engine is
running, the oil level is too low.
If the warning lamp lights while the engine is run-
ning, stop the engine and add engine oil to speci-
fied level. (Refer to “Engine oil” on page 9-2.)
Low fuel indication lamp - amber
ED63ABD
The indication lamp comes on when the fuel tank is
getting low. Refuel as soon as possible.
CAUTION
On petrol-powered vehicles, do not drive with
an extremely low fuel level; running out of fuel
could cause damage to the catalytic con-
verter.
NOTE
On inclines or curves, due to the movement of fuel
in the tank, the low fuel indication lamp may come
on earlier than usual.

NOTE
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly may
turn on the brake warning lamp, ABS warn-
ing lamp and brake warning buzzer. It is
normal if the lamp goes out and the buzzer
stops sounding after a few seconds.
If the lamp illuminates while
driving(1) Since there will always be a possibil-
ity of the vehicle becoming unstable
when brakes are applied rapidly,
ensure that brakes are applied gently
and that high-speed driving is not
attempted; furthermore, bring the
vehicle to halt in a safe location.
Restart the engine and check to see
whether the lamp goes out after a few
minutes driving; if it then remains off
during driving, there is no problem.
However, if the lamp does not go out,
or if it lights up again when the vehicle
is driven, have the vehicle checked by
an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer as
soon as possible.
(2) After starting the engine using jumper
cables, if you attempt to drive the
vehicle before the battery is suffi-
ciently charged, the engine will run
irregularly and the ABS warning lamp
will illuminate indicating that the vehicle
should not be driven.
This situation, however, is caused
merely by insufficient battery voltage
and is not an abnormal situation.
If such a situation occurs, run the
engine at idle for some time to charge
the battery.

FrontNOTE
(1) Immediately after the vehicle starts
moving after engine start up, a brake
pedal pulsating is felt when the brake
pedal is depressed. This pulsation is
due to the self-diagnosis operation of
the ABS and does not indicate a mal-
function.
(2) After driving on snowy roads, remove
any snow and ice which may have
become adhered to the wheel areas.
When doing this, be careful not to dam-
age the wheel speed sensors (A) and
cables located at each wheel on
vehicles equipped with an ABS.

Type 1Brake fluid
EM08A-Wa
Type 1
(Except for vehicles with ABS )Check the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir.
The brake fluid level must be between the
“MAX”and“MIN”marks on the reservoir.
M08A025A
Type 2Type 2
(Vehicles with ABS )Check the brake fluid level in the reser-
voir.
The brake fluid level must be between the
“MAX”and“MIN”marks on the reservoir.
If the level is below the“MIN”mark, check
according to the following procedure:
1. Turn the ignition key to the“LOCK”or
“ACC”position.
2. Repeatedly depress the brake pedal
until significant resistance is felt
(normally after about 40 times).
3. Check the brake fluid level in the res-
ervoir.
The brake fluid level must be between
the“MAX”and“MIN”marks on the res-
ervoir.The fluid level falls slightly with wear of the
brake pads, but this does not indicate any
abnormality.
If the brake fluid level falls markedly in a
short length of time, it indicates leaks from
the brake system.
If this occurs, have the vehicle checked by
an authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
Use brake fluid conforming to DOT 3 or
DOT 4. The brake fluid is hygroscopic. Too
much moisture in the brake fluid will
adversely affect the brake system, reduc-
ing the brake performance.
In addition, the brake fluid reservoir is
equipped with a special cap to prevent the
entrance of air, and this cap should not be
removed.
The brake fluid level is monitored by a float.
When the brake fluid level falls below the
“MIN”mark, the brake fluid warning lamp
lights up.
