WANINGS REGARDING SERVICING OF SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) EQUIPPED VEHICLES

WARNING
• 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
paassenger (from rendering the SRS inoperative).
• Service or maintenance of any SRS component or SRS-related component must be performed only at an
authorized MITSUBISHI dealer.
• 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 air bag control unit, SRS warning light, front impact sensors, 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 (*).

to apply the brakes often on a descending road-

engine braking is more effectively applied. Con-
versely, if the computer determines that the driver
does not brake much while driving downhill, it
delays downshifting to minimize the effect of
engine braking.

TORQUE CONVERTER STALL TEST
M1231103500111
This test measures the maximum engine speed when the
selector lever is in the "D" or "R" position and the torque con-
verter stalls. This tests the operation of the torque converter
(stator and one-way clutch operation) as well as the holding
performance of the clutches and brakes in the transmission.

Do not let anyone stand in front of or behind the vehi-

1. Check the transmission fluid level and temperature. Check
the engine coolant temperature.
• Transmission fluid level: At the "HOT" mark on the dipstick
• Transmission fluid temperature: 70 − 80°C (158 − 176°F)
• Engine coolant temperature: 80 − 100°C (176 − 212°F)

NOTE: Measures transmission fluid temperature with scan

2. Chock both front wheels.
3. Connect a tachometer.
4. Apply the parking and service brakes fully.
5. Start the engine.
AC204712 AB
CAUTION
• The throttle should not be fully open for any more than
five seconds.
• If you repeat the stall test when the transmission fluid
temperature is greater than 80°C (176°F) move the
selector lever to the "N" position and let the engine run
at approximately 1,000 r/min for at least one minute.
Wait until the transmission fluid temperature returns to
80°C (176°F) or less.
6. Move the selector lever to the "D" position. Fully depress the
accelerator pedal and read the maximum engine speed.
Standard value: Stall speed: 2,200 − 2,700 r/min
7. Move the selector lever to the "R" position. Fully depress the
accelerator pedal and read the maximum engine speed.
Standard value: Stall speed: 2,200 − 2,700 r/min

TORQUE CONVERTER STALL TEST JUDGMENT


RESULTS
1. Stall speed is too high in both "D" and "R" ranges
• Malfunction of the torque converter (Slippage on the splines
of the torque converter and the input shaft)
• Low line pressure
• Low-reverse brake slippage and malfunction of the one-way
clutch
2. Stall speed is too high in "D" range only
• Underdrive clutch slippage
3. Stall speed is too high in "R" range only
• Reverse clutch slippage
• Low-reverse brake slippage
• Reduction brake slippage

1. Drain the transmission fluid.
NOTE: The hydraulic pressure test must be performed
before attempting any adjustments.
2. Remove the valve body cover.
ADJUSTING
SCREW 3. Turn the adjusting screw shown in the illustration to adjust
the line pressure to the standard value. The pressure
increases when the screw is turned counterclockwise.
NOTE: Adjust to the middle of the standard range when the
transmission is at the 1st or 2nd gear.
Standard value: 0.98 − 1.05 MPa (142 − 152 psi)
NOTE: Each complete turn of the adjusting screw changes

4. Install the valve body cover. Pour in one quart transmission
fluid.
5. Repeat the hydraulic pressure test (Refer to P.23A-26).
Readjust the line pressure if necessary.
