4. Rotate the wheel to be measured at approximately 1/2 - 1
rotation per second, and check the output voltage using a
circuit tester or an oscilloscope.

Output voltage
When measuring with a circuit tester:
42 mV or more
When measuring with an oscilloscope:
120 mV p-p or more
5. The followings are suspected if the output voltage is lower
than the value described above. Check the wheel speed
sensor, and replace if necessary.
DToo large clearance between the pole piece of the
wheel speed sensor and ABS rotor
DFaulty wheel speed sensor
Inspecting Waveforms With An Oscilloscope
Use the following method to observe the output voltage
waveform from each wheel speed sensor with an oscilloscope.
DStart the engine, and rotate the front wheels by engaging
1st gear. Turn the rear wheels manually so that they
rotate at a constant speed.
NOTE
1. The waveform measurements can also be taken while
the vehicle is actually moving.
2. The output voltage will be small when the wheel speed
is low, and similarly it will be large when the wheel speed
is high.

REMEDY FOR A FLAT BATTERY
When booster cables are used to start the engine when the
battery is completely flat and then the vehicle is immediately
driven without waiting for the battery to recharge itself to
some extent, the engine may misfire, and driving might not
be possible. This happens because ABS consumes a great
amount of current for its self-check function. If this happens,
recharge the battery fully.
Caution
The vehicle posture will be unstable during braking, so
do not drive the vehicle with the ABS-ECU connector
disconnected or with the ABS not operating for any other
reason.

Caution
1. The hydraulic unit assembly is heavy, and so care
should be taken when removing it.
2. The hydraulic unit assembly is not to be
disassembled; its nuts and bolts should absolutely
not be loosened.
3. The hydraulic unit assembly must not be dropped
or otherwise subjected to impact shocks.
4. The hydraulic unit assembly must not be turned
upside down or laid on its side.

PARKING BRAKES -On-Vehicle Service36-3
ON-VEHICLE SERVICE
PARKING BRAKE LEVER STROKE CHECK
AND ADJUSTMENT
1. Pull the parking brake lever with a force of approx. 200
N and count the number of notches.
Standard value: 5 - 7 notches
2. If the parking brake lever stroke is not the standard value,
adjust as described below.
(1) Remove the floor console assembly. (Refer to
GROUP52A)
(2) Loosen the adjusting nut to move it to the cable rod
end so that the cable will be free.
(3) Depress the brake pedal repeatedly until the lever
has no change in its stroke.
NOTE
Depressing the brake pedal repeatedly adjusts shoe
clearance correctly.
(4) Turn the adjusting nut to adjust the parking brake lever
stroke to the standard value. After adjusting, check
that there is no space between the adjusting nut and
the parking brake lever. Check that the adjusting nut is
secured with the nut holder.
Caution
If the parking brake lever stroke is below the
standard value and the braking is too firm, the
rear brakes may drag.
(5) After adjusting the parking brake lever stroke, jack
up the rear end of the vehicle, and then release the
parking brake and turn the rear wheels to check that
the rear brakes are not dragging.
PARKING BRAKE SWITCH CHECK
1. Remove the floor console assembly. (Refer to
GROUP52A)
2. Remove the front seat assembly(RH). (Refer to
GROUP52A)
3. Check for continuity between the parking brake switch
terminal and the switch mounting bolt.

WARNINGS REGARDING SERVICING OF SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) EQUIPPED VEHICLES
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 and passenger (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 - Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) before beginning any service or maintenance of any component of the SRS or any SRS-related
component.
NOTE
The SRS includes the following components: SRS-ECU, SRS warning lamp, air bag module, clock spring and 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 by an asterisk (*).
