8. Checks using an oscilloscope
Sensor output signals and actuator drive signals can be
checked visually by taking waveform measurements using an
oscilloscope.

sensor
<Measurement method>
(1) Disconnect the exhaust cam position sensor connector, and
connect the special test harness (MB991709) in its place.
(2) Disconnect the crank angle sensor connector, and connect
the special test harness (MB998478) in its place.
(3) Connect the No.2 terminal of the exhaust cam position
sensor connector and the No.2 terminal (the black coloured
clip on the special tool) of the crank angle sensor
connector, to the probes for each channel on the
oscilloscope.
Note
When measuring at the engine ECU connector, connect the
probes for each channel on the oscilloscope to No.50
terminal (exhaust cam position sensor), and to No.43
terminal (crank angle sensor).

<Examples of abnormal waveforms>
•Example 1
Waveform characteristics
Arectangular waveform is produced even though the
engine has not been started.
Cause of the problem
Sensor interface fault
•Example 2
Waveform characteristics
The waveform is displaced to the left or the right.
Cause of the problem
The timing belt is loose.
There is an abnormality in the sensor disc.
8-2 Intake cam position sensor
<Measurement method>
(1) Disconnect the intake cam position sensor connector and
connect the special test harness (MB991709) in its place.
(All terminals should be connected).
(2) Connect the oscilloscope probe to the No.2 terminal of the
intake cam position sensor connector.
Note
When measuring at the engine ECU connector, connect the
No.53 terminal (intake cam position sensor) to the
oscilloscope probe.
(3) When checking the output signal of the intake cam position
sensor, observe the output signal of the crank angle sensor
at the same time.

Fitting guidelines



A 

Fitting the water spray hose ASSY and fixing tape (for securing the water spray hose ASSY)
1. After fitting the water spray hose, the three-way joint and the washer valve, affix pads, clips and tape at the positions
shown in the water spray hose diagram.
2. Fit the water spray hose ASSY to the front bumper using the water spray hose ASSY clip.
3. Affix tape as shown in the diagram, so that the water spray hose ASSY does not slip.

Cautionary Note regarding servicing of vehicles fitted with SRS airbags and/or seatbelts
with pre-tensioner systems.
Warnings:
1. Incorrect inspection or servicing of a component part of the SRS airbag system or seatbelt pre-tensioner system,
or a part relating to these systems, may cause accidental operation (deployment) of the SRS airbag or seatbelt
pre-tensioners, or may cause these systems to be disabled, leading in either case the risk of serious injury.
2. If parts may be affected by heat during painting operations, then those parts must be removed in advance. This
applies to the SRS-ECU, airbag modules (driver’s sear and front passenger’s seat), clock springs, front impact
sensors, side impact sensors, and pre-tensioner seatbelts.
• 93ºC or above : SRS-ECU, airbag modules (driver’s sear and front passenger’s seat), clock springs, front
impact sensors, side impact sensors
•90ºC or above : Pre-tensioner seatbelts
3. The component parts of the SRS airbag system or seatbelt pre-tensioner system, and parts relating to these
systems, must always be inspected and serviced by a Mitsubishi dealer.
4. Service personnel must read the relevant service manuals (particularly, Section 52B – SRS Airbags) carefully and
thoroughly, before inspecting or servicing the component parts of the SRS airbag system or seatbelt pre-
tensioner system, and parts relating to these systems.

GENERAL INFORMATION - HOW TO READ THE WIRING DIAGRAMS0-5
Indicates input / output to
and from control unit
(direction of current flow).
Input Output Input/Output
Indicates a wiring connector inside a device,
which is not shown in the layout diagrams.
Example :
Indicates a connector
located inside a
device, numbered in
order starting from 1.
Indicates the number of the connector
shown in the layout diagram.
Indicates that these are the same
intermediate connector.
Indicates that the diagram
continues from section [A] in
block [1].
Indicates the terminal No.
If two or more connectors are
connected to the same device, a
broken line between parts indicates
that the same connector is used.
The two-way arrow shows that
current can flow downwards or
upwards, under the control of
the ECU.
Indicates a harness junction point
where the wire changes colour or
diameter.
Indicates an intersection
where the wires are not
connected.
Indicates an intersection
where the wires are
connected
Indicates the representative earth
point on the vehicle body for that
circuit. (This number matches that of
the earth point in the layout diagrams
and the diagrams of individual part
installation positions.)
Indicates a spare connector, if the
corresponding device is not
installed, due to the vehicle
specifications.Indicates the connector part number given in
the harness repair manual. A number in
( ) indicates the part number of the connector
that corresponds to a connector symbol.
