WARNINGS 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
passenger (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 (*).

OPERATION
.

Inside rear view mirror with compass and

temperature display
.

Seat belt warning system
• When the ignition switch is turned "ON," the deci-
sion circuit operates and the seat belt warning
light inside of the combination meter flashes four
times for 6 seconds.
• The decision circuit output makes the seat belt
tone alarm sound intermittently for 6 seconds to
indicate unfastening of the seat belt.
• When the seat belt is buckled (seat belt buckle
switch is turned "OFF"), the seat belt tone alarm
stops sounding.
When the ignition switch is turned "OFF," both
seat belt warning light and tone alarm do not
operate.
• The compass or temperature will appear on the
upper right of the mirror when the switch at the
center of the inside rear view mirror is pressed.
• The compass detects the vehicle direction with
the geomagnetic sensor built in the inside rear
view mirror, and displays eight directions with the
LCD.
• The outside temperature meter calculates the
information from the outside thermo sensor, and
displays the temperature with the LCD.

INTRODUCTION TO SEAT BELT WARNING SYSTEM DIAGNOSIS
M1523003700062

The seat belt warning system is controlled by the
ETACS-ECU.
The seat belt warning system flashes the seat belt
warning light in the combination meter for 6 seconds
after the ignition switch is turned "ON," and sounds a
seat belt tone alarm if the seat belt is not fastened.
If one of the following symptoms occurs, a malfunc-
tion may have occurred.
SEAT BELT WARNING SYSTEM DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING STRATEGY
• The seat belt warning light does not flicker even
when the ignition switch is turned "ON."
• The seat belt tone alarm does not sound even
when the ignition switch is turned "ON" while the
seat belt is not fastened.
• The seat belt tone alarm does not sound even
when the seat belt is fastened within 6 seconds
after the seat belt tone alarm starts sounding.
M1523002700069

Use these steps to plan your diagnostic strategy. If
you follow them carefully, you will be sure that you
have exhausted most of the possible ways to find a
fault of the seat belt warning system.
1. Gather information about the problem from the
customer.
2. Verify that the condition described by the cus-
tomer exists.
3. If you cannot verify the condition, the malfunction
is intermittent. Refer to GROUP 00, How to Cope
With Intermittent Malfunctions P.00-7.
4. Find the malfunction by following the Symptom
Chart.

CIRCUIT OPERATION
Refer to Outside Temperature Meter and Electronic
Compass Circuit (Refer to P.52A-21.) The vehicle
direction is displayed by the output of the geomag-
netic sensor built into the outside temperature meter
and electronic compass.
.
The vehicle magnetism tends to be disturbed particu-
larly at such places as tunnel, railway crossing, area
along railway, elevated road, urban area crowded
with high-storied buildings, area above subway, etc.
If disturbed, the driving direction marker will fluctu-
ate.

TROUBLE SHOOTING HINTS

.

Malfunction of the inside rear view mirror (with com-

pass and temperature display).

DIAGNOSIS
Check that the calibration of the compass can be carried out at
another place.
1. Move the vehicle to be checked to another place.
NOTE: Move to a wide flat place where calibration of the
compass can be carried out.
2. Check again that calibration of the compass can be carried
out.
NOTE: If the calibration is correct, the following causes can
be assumed.
• Calibration is difficult due to the magnet direction and
direction of the vehicle at the start of calibration.
• There is a disturbing magnetic field in the area, and cali-
bration is difficult.
If the calibration is correct, check that the malfunction is elimi-
nated.
If the calibration is incorrect, replace the inside rear view mirror
(with compass and temperature display) (Refer to P.52A-43.)
Then, check that the malfunction is eliminated.

PROCEDURES FOR CALIBRATING THE
COMPASS
M1524011500055
1. Press the "COMP" button. The visual display is now in
compass mode and the vehicle's directional heading (N, NE,
SE, S, SW, W and NW) will be displayed.
Pressing the "COMP" button a second time will turn off the
visual display.

AC003253

2. If the display reads "C," there may be a strong magnetic field

interfering with the compass. In this case, the compass may
need calibration.

AC003254

3. Drive the vehicle in a circle at about 5 mph (8km/h) or less

until the display reads a direction.
You can also calibrate the compass by driving your vehicle
on your everyday routine and after several turns the
compass will become calibrated and will display a direction.

PROCESSES FOR ADJUSTING THE COMPASS
VARIANCE
M1524012000053
Under certain circumstances, as during a long distance
cross-country trip, it will be necessary to adjust for compass
variance.
Compass variance is the difference between earth's
magnetic north and true geographic north. If not adjusted to
account for compass variance, your compass could give
false readings.
1. Press the "COMP" button for more than 3 seconds. The
current zone number will appear in the display.

AC003256

2. Find your current location and variance zone number on the

map given on the left.
3. Press the "COMP" button until the new zone number
appears in the display.
After you stop pressing the button in, the display will show a
compass direction within a few seconds.
NOTE: Do not install the ski rack, antenna, etc. Which are
attached to the vehicle by means of a magnet. They affect
the operation of the compass.
NOTE: If the compass deviates from the correct indication
soon after repeated adjustment, have the compass checked
at an authorized Mitsubishi dealer.
NOTE: The compass may not indicate the correct compass
point in the places shown below:
• Tunnels
• Areas along he railroad
• Underpass
• Transforming station
• Area with many office buildings
AC003257
• Area over the subway
• Up or down a steep hill
The compass returns to the correct compass point when the
vehicle moves to an area where the geomagnetism in stabi-
lized.

AUTO-DIMMING FEATURE TEST

M1524012500058
Be sure the ignition is on and that the mirror is on. The green
LED light to the right of the main display switch will be lit
when the mirror is on. If it's not, depress the "TEMP" side of
the main display switch for 15 seconds.
1. Cover the forward-facing light sensor on the back of the
BLACK CLOSE mirror with a black cloth.
2. While in a well-lit area, make sure light strikes the sensor on
the front of the mirror, simulating glare from vehicles behind
you. The mirror will dim within 2 minutes if the testing for the
first time. If the mirror does not dim, replace the inside rear
