WARNING 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 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 (*).

FRONT SUSPENSION -On-vehicle Service33A-5
Tightening torque: 52±2 N·m
3. Confirm that the toe-in is at the standard value.
4. Use a turning radius gauge to check that the steering
angle is at the standard value.
Standard value:
Inner wheels31_45’±1_30’
Outer wheels (for reference)27_15’
TOE-OUT ANGLE ON TURNS
To check the steering linkage, especially after the vehicle
has been involved in an accident or if an accident is presumed,
it is advisable to check the toe-out angle on turns in addition
to the wheel alignment.
Conduct this test on the left turn as well as on the right turn.
Standard value:

NOTE
1. *: difference between right and left wheels must be less
than 30’
2. Caster and kingpin inclination are preset at the factory
and cannot be adjusted.
SELECTION THE CAMBER
Select the camber by the installation direction of the allow
of the connecting bolt of the strut assembly and the knuckle.

of vehicle inside.
D-2
_00’±30’: Install the bolt turning the allow to the direction
of vehicle outside.
BALL JOINT DUST COVER CHECK
1. Check the dust cover for cracks or damage by pushing
it with finger.
2. If the dust cover is cracked or damaged, replace the
lower arm assembly.
NOTE
Cracks or damage of the dust cover may cause damage
of the ball joint.

BASIC BRAKE SYSTEM -On-vehicle Service35A-9
CHECK VALVE OPERATION CHECK
1. Remove the vacuum hose. (Refer to P.35A-17.)
Caution
The check valve should not be disassembled from
the vacuum hose as they are united as one part.
2. Check the operation of the check valve by using a vacuum
pump.

connectionAccept/reject criteria
Connection at the brake
booster side (A)A negative pressure (vacuum) is
created and held.
Connection at the intake
manifold side (B)A negative pressure (vacuum) is
not created.
Caution
If the check valve is defective, always replace it as
an assembly unit together with the vacuum hose.
PROPORTIONING VALVE FUNCTION TEST

Caution
The proportioning valves are installed independently for
the right and left brake lines. Always measure each valve.
1. Connect two pressure gauges to the output port of the
master cylinder and output port of the proportioning valve.
2. Bleed the brake line and the pressure gauges. (Refer
to P.35A-10.)
3. Depress the brake pedal gradually. Then check that the
split point, where the output fluid pressure begins to drop
in proportion to the output fluid pressure, is at the standard
value.
Standard value: 2.70 - 3.19 MPa
4. Depress the brake pedal more strongly than at the above
step. Then check that the output fluid pressure is at the
standard value when the input fluid pressure is 6.86 MPa.
Standard value: 3.68 - 4.17 MPa
5. Measure each output fluid pressure at both valves, and
check that the difference between the two is at the limit
value or less.
Limit: 0.49 MPa
6. If the measured pressure exceeds the limit, replace the
proportioning valve.

ABS WARNING LAMP INSPECTION
Check that the ABS warning lamp illuminates as follows.
1. When the ignition key is turned to “ON”, the ABS warning
lamp illuminates for approximately 3 seconds and then
switches off.
2. When the ignition key is turned to “START”, the ABS
warning lamp remains illuminated.
3. When the ignition key is turned from “START” back to
“ON”, the ABS warning lamp illuminates for approximately
3 seconds and then switches off.
NOTE
The ABS warning lamp may remain on until the vehicle
reaches a speed of several km/h. This is limited to cases
where diagnosis code Nos.21 to 24, 41 to 44, 53 or 55
have been recorded because of a previous problem
occurring. In this case, the ABS-ECU keeps the warning
lamp illuminated until the problem corresponding to that
diagnosis code can be detected.
4. If the illumination is other than the above, check the
diagnosis codes.
DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION
READING DIAGNOSIS CODES
Read a diagnosis code by the MUT-IIor ABS warning lamp.
(Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Use Troubleshooting/Inspection
Service Points.)
NOTE
Connect the MUT-IIto the diagnosis connector (16-pin).
ERASING DIAGNOSIS CODES
When using the MUT-II
Connect the MUT-IIto the diagnosis connector (16-pin) and
erase the diagnosis code.
Caution
Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” (OFF) position before
connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II.
