Diagnostic Instruction Mitsubishi OBDII
This should be a little connector 'block', just under your dashboard (above your knee, when sitting in
driver’s seat). The connector should look something like the following diagrams.
TOOLS REQUIRED: Jumper wire – stripped at each end (or paper clip etc)
Once you are ready to retrieve your codes, follow this procedure:
*** YOU MUST TURN KEY "OFF", BEFORE ATTEMPTING THE FOLLOWING ***
Using your Jumper Wire, insert the ends of your wire into pin numbers 1 & 4 only (see diagram below)
NOTE: Pins 1 to 8 are found on the long edge of connector.
Instructions:
1) DO NOT START ENGINE....instead, TURN KEY TO "ON" position, until the dashboard lights come on.
2) The ORANGE "Engine Check" light may start flashing
st
Long flashes represent the 1 code digit; short flashes
nd
represent the 2 code digit. The codes will repeat again.
3) In the same manner, check for any codes present on the
AIRBAG and/or ABS warning lights.
4) Auto transmission: if any faults are present within the Auto
transmission, the “N” (neutral) indicator dash light will flash
the appropriate codes also.
Note: continuous flashing (i.e. no sequence) of any warning
lights, indicates no fault codes present in that circuit.
5) To erase All codes: Turn key off – either remove fuse for the
ECU momentarily, or disconnect ‘negative’ battery cable for
at least 10 seconds.
6) Drive vehicle again, then re-check for codes to ensure fault has been corrected.
