EXAMPLES OF ABNORMAL WAVEFORMS
NOTE
1. The size of the waveform patterns differs largely, depending on the adjustment of the variable knob
on the analyzer.
2. Identification of abnormal waveforms is easier when there is a large output current (regulator is not
operating). (Waveforms can be observed when the headlamps are illuminated.)
3. Check the conditions of the charging warning lamp (illuminated/not illuminated). Also, check the charging
system totally.

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 (*).

FLUID CHECK VEHICLES WITH ACD AND AYC>
1. Remove the maintenance lid located in the luggage
compartment.
2.
If the vehicle has been run, leave it for 90 min. or more
in an ordinary temperature (10_C–30_C) to allow the
accumulator internal pressure to drop.
NOTE
If the ambient temperature is 10_C or less, allow more
time to leave the vehicle to stand idle.

Set the MUT-IIto the 16-pin diagnosis connector. Turn ON
the ignition switch, perform MUT-IIactuator test (Item
No.03), forcibly drive the hydraulic unit and remove the
pressure in the accumulator.
Caution
Turn the ignition switch to the “LOCK”(OFF) position
before connecting or disconnecting the MUT-II.
NOTE
(1) In the actuator test (Item No. 03: Oil Level Check
Mode), the directional valve of the hydraulic unit is
moved to the left and right for 20 times, and then
the differential is cleared automatically. Drive can also
be cleared forcibly using the Clear key of the MUT-II.
(2) If the function has been stopped by fail-safe, the
hydraulic unit cannot be cleared forcibly.
3. Check that the fluid level in the oil reservoir is in the
range between MAX and MIN.
4. If the fluid level is lower than MIN, add the specified
fluid.
Specified fluid: Dia Queen ATF SP III
5. Reinstall the maintenance lid.
