VERIFY THE COMPLAINT
- Make sure the customer's complaint and the service writer's work order description are understood before starting work.
- Make sure the correct operation of the system is understood. Read the service information description to verify normal system operation.
- Operate the system to see the symptoms. Look for other symptoms that were not reported by the customer, or on the work order, that may be related to the problem.
DETERMINE POSSIBLE CAUSES
Compare the confirmed symptoms to the diagnostic symptom indexes to find the right diagnosis procedure.
If the confirmed symptoms cannot be found on any symptom index, determine other possible causes.
- Analyze the system diagrams and list all possible causes for the problem symptoms.
- Rank all these possible causes in order of probability, based on how much of the system they cover, how likely they are to be the cause, and how easy they will be to check. Be sure to take experience into account. Consider the causes of similar problems seen in the past. The list of causes should be ranked in order from general to specific, from most-likely to least-likely, and from easy-to-check to hard-to-check.
FIND THE PROBLEM
After the symptoms have been confirmed, and probable causes have been identified, the next step is to make step-by-step checks of the suspected system components, junctions, and links in logical order.
Use the diagnostic procedures in the service information whenever possible. Follow these procedures carefully to avoid missing an important step in the diagnosis sequence. It might be the skipped step that leads to the solution of the problem.
If the service information doesn't have step-by-step procedures to help diagnose the problem, make a series of checks based on the ranked list of probable causes. Troubleshooting checks should be made in the order that the list of causes was ranked
- General to specific
- Most-likely to least-likely
- Easy-to-check to hard-to-check
REPAIR THE PROBLEM
When the step-by-step troubleshooting checks find a fault, perform the proper repairs. Make sure to fix the root cause of the problem, not just the symptom. Just fixing the symptom, without fixing the root cause, will cause the symptom to eventually return.
VERIFY THE REPAIR
After repairs are made, recheck the operation of the system to confirm that the problem is eliminated. Be sure to check the system thoroughly. Sometimes new problems are revealed after repairs have been made.
TROUBLESHOOTING CONTENTS
Troubleshooting of electronic control systems for which the scan tool can be used follows the basic outline described below. Even in systems for which the scan tool cannot be used, part of these systems still follow this outline.

9. CHECK AT ECU TERMINALS
Terminal numbers for the ECU connectors, inspection items, and standard values have been provided in this chart as reference information.
TERMINAL VOLTAGE CHECKS
- Connect a needle-nosed wire probe to a voltmeter probe. CAUTION: Short-circuiting the positive (+) probe between a connector terminal and ground could damage the vehicle wiring, the sensor, the ECU, or all three. Use care to prevent this!
- Insert the needle-nosed wire probe into each of the ECU connector terminals from the wire side, and measure the voltage while referring to the check chart. NOTE: Measure voltage with the ECU connectors connected. You may find it convenient to pull out the ECU to make it easier to reach the connector terminals. Checks don't have to be carried out in the order given in the chart.
- If voltage readings differ from normal condition values, check related sensors, actuators, and wiring. Replace or repair as needed.
- After repair or replacement, recheck with the voltmeter to confirm that the repair has corrected the problem.
TERMINAL RESISTANCE AND CONTINUITY CHECKS
- Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
- Disconnect the ECU connector. CAUTION: If resistance and continuity checks are performed on the wrong terminals, damage to the vehicle wiring, sensors, ECU, and/or ohmmeter may occur. Use care to prevent this!
- Measure the resistance and check for continuity between the terminals of the ECU harness-side connector while referring to the check chart. NOTE: Checks don't have to be carried out in the order given in the chart.
- If the ohmmeter shows any deviation from the Normal Condition value, check the corresponding sensor, actuator and related electrical wiring, then repair or replace.
- After repair or replacement, recheck with the ohmmeter to confirm that the repair has corrected the problem.
10. INSPECTION PROCEDURES USING AN OSCILLOSCOPE
When there are inspection procedures using an oscilloscope, these are listed.
HOW TO USE THE INSPECTION PROCEDURES
The causes of many of the problems occurring in electric circuitry are generally the connectors, components, the ECU, and the harnesses between connectors, in that order. These inspection procedures follow this order. They first try to discover a problem with a connector or a defective component.
Scheme 3
Scheme 4
HARNESS INSPECTION
Check for an open or short circuit in the harness between the terminals which were faulty according to the connector measurements. Carry out this inspection while referring to HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . Here, "Check harness between power supply and terminal xx" also includes checking for blown fuse. For inspection service points when there is a blown fuse, refer to " INSPECTION SERVICE POINTS FOR A BLOWN FUSE ."
MEASURES TO TAKE AFTER REPLACING THE ECU
If the trouble symptoms have not disappeared even after replacing the ECU, repeat the inspection procedure from the beginning.
CONNECTOR MEASUREMENT SERVICE POINTS
Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position when connecting and disconnecting the connectors. Turn the ignition switch to "ON" when measuring, unless there are instructions to the contrary.
IF INSPECTING WITH THE CONNECTOR CONNECTED < WATERPROOF CONNECTORS >
Be sure to use special tool. Never insert a test probe from the harness side, as this will reduce the waterproof performance and result in corrosion.
Scheme 5
IF INSPECTING WITH THE CONNECTOR CONNECTED < ORDINARY (NON-WATERPROOF) CONNECTORS >
Required Special Tool
Scheme 6
- MB992006: Extra Fine Probe Inspect by inserting a test probe from the harness side. If the connector is too small to insert a test probe (e.g. control unit connector), do not insert it forcibly. Use special tool MB992006 (extra fine probe).
IF INSPECTING WITH THE CONNECTOR DISCONNECTED
< When Inspecting a Female Pin >
Scheme 7
Scheme 8
- From front side of the connector Required Special Tool: MB991219: Inspection Harness (Included in MB991223, Harness Set) The inspection harness for connector pin contact pressure should be used. The test probe should never be forcibly inserted, as it may cause a defective contact.
- From back side of the connector (SRS-ECU harness side connector) Since the SRS-ECU harness connector is plated to improve conductivity, observe the warning below when checking this connector.
| WARNING | Insert the backprobing tool into the connector from the harness side, and connect the tester to the backprobing tool. If any tool other than the backprobing tool is used, it may cause damage to the harness and other components. Furthermore, measurement should not be carried out by touching the backprobing tool directly against the terminals from the front of the connector. The terminals are plated to increase their conductivity, so that if they are touched directly by the backprobing tool, the plating may break, which will decrease reliability. |
< When Inspecting a Male Pin >
| CAUTION | At this time, be careful not to short the connector pins with the test probes. Doing so may damage the circuits inside the ECU. |
Touch the pin directly with the test probe.
Scheme 9
Scheme 10
- Connector is disconnected or improperly connected
- Connector pins are pulled out
- Stretched an broken wires at terminal section
- Low contact pressure between male and female terminals
- Low connection pressure due to rusted terminals or foreign matter lodged in terminals
CONNECTOR PIN INSPECTION
If the connector pin stopper is damaged, the terminal connections (male and female pins) will not be perfect even when the connector body is connected, because the pins may pull out of the back side of the connector. Therefore, gently pull the wires one by one to make sure that no pins pull out of the connector.
Scheme 11
CONNECTOR ENGAGEMENT INSPECTION
Required Special Tool
MB991219: Inspection Harness (contained in MB991223 Test Harness)
Use special tool, MB991219 to inspect the engagement of the male pins and female pins. [Pin drawing force: 1 N (0.2 pound) or more]
Scheme 12
HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTIONS
Most intermittent malfunctions occur under certain conditions. If those conditions can be identified, the cause will be easier to find.
1. ASK THE CUSTOMER ABOUT THE MALFUNCTION
Ask what it feels like, what it sounds like, etc. Then ask about driving conditions, weather, frequency of occurrence, and so on.
2. DETERMINE THE CONDITIONS FROM THE CUSTOMER'S RESPONSES
Typically, almost all intermittent malfunctions occur from conditions like vibration, temperature and/or moisture change, poor connections. From the customer's responses, it should be reasoned which condition is most likely.
3. USE SIMULATION TEST
Use the simulation tests below to attempt to duplicate the customer's complaint. Determine the most likely circuit(s) and perform the simulation tests on the connectors and parts of that circuit(s). Be sure to use the inspection procedures provided for diagnostic trouble codes and trouble symptoms.
For temperature and/or moisture condition related intermittent malfunctions, try to change the conditions of the suspected circuit components, then use the simulation tests below.
4. VERIFY THE INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION IS ELIMINATED
Repair the malfunctioning part and try to duplicate the condition(s) again to verify the intermittent malfunction has been eliminated.
SIMULATION TESTS
Note. In case of difficulty in finding the cause of the intermittent malfunction, the data recorder function in the scan tool is effective.
For these simulation tests, shake, then gently bend, pull, and twist the wiring of each of these examples to duplicate the intermittent malfunction.
Scheme 13
- Shake the connector up-and-down, and right-and-left.
- Shake the wiring harness up-and-down, and right-and-left. Especially, check the splice points of wiring harnesses carefully. Refer to «HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/x-2007-2016/remont/body-electrical/#general-electrical-except-lancer-evolution) .
- Shake the part or sensor.
HOW TO TREAT PAST TROUBLE
Since the trouble may still be present even the status is "Stored", set the vehicle to the diagnostic trouble code detection condition and check that the status changes to "Active". If the status does not change from "Stored", carry out the following procedure.
- Establish from the customer whether a fuse or connector has been replaced or disconnected.
- If yes, erase the diagnostic trouble code, and then check that no diagnostic code is reset. If no diagnostic trouble code is reset, the diagnosis is complete.
- If no, follow the applicable Diagnostic Trouble Code Chart. Then check the wiring harness and connector, and refer to " «HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTION»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/x-2007-2016/remont/hoistjack/#general-information-except-lancer-evolution__how-to-cope-with-intermittent-malfunctions) ."
INSPECTION SERVICE POINTS FOR A BLOWN FUSE
Remove the blown fuse and measure the resistance between the load side of the blown fuse and the ground. Close the switches of all circuits which are connected to this fuse. If the resistance is almost 0 ohms at this time, there is a short somewhere between these switches and the load. If the resistance is not 0 ohms, there is no short at the present time, but a momentary short has probably caused the fuse to blow.
The main causes of a short circuit are the following.
Scheme 14
- Harness being clamped by the vehicle body
- Damage to the outer casing of the harness due to wear or heat
- Water getting into the connector or circuitry
- Human error (mistakenly shorting a circuit, etc.)

CAUTIONS FOR WORKING IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT < 2.0L ENGINE Turbo >
| WARNING | Just after the ignition switch is turned to "LOCK" (OFF) position, the adjustments must always be made with the cooling fan stopped. After the ignition switch is turned to "LOCK" (OFF) position, the cooling fan might be driven for a few minutes by the after run fan control. If the adjustments are made with the cooling fan driven, injury or damage may occur. |
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
- Items to review when servicing SRS: Be sure to read «GENERAL INFORMATION»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/x-2007-2016/remont/airbag/#supplemental-restraint-system-srs-except-lancer-evolution) in Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). For safe operation, please follow the directions and heed all warnings. Wait at least 60 seconds after disconnecting the battery cable before doing any further work. The SRS system is designed to retain enough voltage to deploy the air bag even after the battery has been disconnected. Serious injury may result from unintended air bag deployment if work is done on the SRS system immediately after the battery cable is disconnected. Warning labels must be heeded when servicing or handling SRS components. Warning labels can be found in the following locations (Refer to «WARNING/CAUTION LABELS»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/x-2007-2016/remont/airbag/#supplemental-restraint-system-srs-except-lancer-evolution) ). Always use the designated special tools and test equipment. Store components removed from the SRS in a clean and dry place. The air bag module should be stored on a flat surface and placed so that the pad surface is facing upward. Never attempt to disassemble or repair the SRS components (SRS-ECU, air bag module and clock spring). If there is a defect, replace the defective part. Whenever you finish servicing the SRS, check the SRS warning light operation to make sure that the system functions properly. Be sure to deploy the air bag before disposing of the air bag module or disposing of a vehicle equipped with an air bag (Refer to «AIR BAG MODULE AND SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER DISPOSAL PROCEDURES»(/mitsubishi/lancer-evolution/x-2007-2016/remont/airbag/#supplemental-restraint-system-srs-except-lancer-evolution) ).
- Observe the following when carrying out operations on places where SRS components are installed, including operations not directly related to the SRS air bag. When removing or installing parts, do not allow any impact or shock to occur to the SRS components. If heat damage may occur during paint work, remove the SRS-ECU, the air bag module, clock spring, the front impact sensor, the side impact sensor, and the seat belt pre-tensioner. SRS-ECU, air bag module, clock spring, front impact sensor, the side impact sensor: 93°C (200°F) or more Seat belt pre-tensioner: 90°C (194°F) or more
SERVICING ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
| WARNING | Battery posts, terminals and related accessories contain lead and lead compounds. WASH HANDS AFTER HANDLING. |
Scheme 26
- Note the following before proceeding with working on the electrical system. Never perform unauthorized modifications to any electrical device or wiring. Such modifications might lead to a vehicle malfunction, over-capacity or short-circuit that could result in a fire in the vehicle. CAUTION: Before connecting or disconnecting the negative battery cable, be sure to turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position and turn off the lights (If this is not done, there is the possibility of semiconductor parts being damaged).

TIMING CHAIN MAINTENANCE < 2.0 L ENGINE Turbo >
If the vehicle equipped with 2.0 L ENGINE Turbo continues the rough driving like competitive running *1 , the amount of carbon mixed into the engine oil tends to increase. This can possibly cause the timing chain to gradually elongate. To prevent this, the function or logic monitoring the amount of elongation of the timing chain is integrated into the ECM. When the ECM detects the elongation of the timing chain, the warning is shown on the multi-information display of combination meter as shown in the illustration. This gives the driver the information that the visual check of the elongation of the timing chain is necessary. If this warning is continuously neglected, the timing chain can possibly interfere with the other engine components, resulting in the engine damaged.
Scheme 44
Note. *1: The competitive running means the running that constantly repeats the cycle of the full opened position of the accelerator pedal and the full closed position of the accelerator pedal.
The ECM stores the timing chain conditions as the learning value when the timing chain is installed. The ECM stores the amount of elongation of the timing chain in the EEPROM as the current learning value, compared with the learning value. The ECM judges that the visual check of the elongation of the timing chain is necessary when the current learning value exceeds the specified value. Thus, use the scan tool MB991958 to always carry out the maintenance of the learning value related to the timing chain that is stored by the ECM after the following service.
| Service | Maintenance items by scan tool MB991958 | Maintenance purpose |
|---|---|---|
| ECM replacement | Learned value Read&Save (1) Write learned value (Changed ECU) (1) | The purpose is that the initial value regarding the amount of elongation of the timing chain stored by the current ECM is loaded in the scan tool MB991958, and then written into the new ECM. This allows the ECM to appropriately monitor the amount of elongation of the timing chain after the ECM replacement. |
| Visual check of elongation of timing chain | Learned value reset | The purpose is that the initial value stored by the current ECM is initialized after the visual check of the elongation of the timing chain by illuminating the warning lamp, whether or not the timing chain is replaced. This allows the ECM to appropriately monitor the amount of elongation of the timing chain. |
| Timing chain or engine assembly replaced | Learned value reset | The purpose of this procedure is that the initial learning value stored by the current ECM is initialized when the timing chain or the engine assembly (the timing chain is also replaced with a new one.) is replaced. This allows the ECM to appropriately monitor the amount of elongation of the timing chain. |
| (1) The visual check of the elongation of the timing chain must be carried out using the scan tool MB991958 under the following conditions (Refer to TIMING CHAIN ELONGATION VISUAL CHECK ). When the initial value cannot be written into the new ECM because of the ECM malfunction. | ||

FORM-IN-PLACE GASKET (FIPG)
The engine has several parts to which the form-in-place gasket (FIPG) is used. To sufficiently achieve the aims of this gasket, it is necessary to pay attention to the application amount, procedure, and surface status.
If the application amount is too small, a leakage will occur. If the application amount is excessive, the FIPG will overflow and cause a clogging or narrowing of water and oil paths. Therefore, to eliminate the leak from the joint, it is indispensable that the FIPG be applied with a correct amount and without any gap.
Because the FIPG used for the engine parts becomes hardened by the reaction with the atmospheric moisture, it is normally used for the metal flange section.
| CAUTION | Reapply the FIPG with care to the followings. Completely remove the old FIPG including the residue in gaps of parts. Using Mitsubishi genuine parts cleaner (MZ100387) or equivalent, degrease the FIPG application surface carefully. According to the FIPG application procedures, apply it accurately. |
DISASSEMBLY
The parts installed with the FIPG can be disassembled easily without using any special method. However, in some cases, it is necessary to tear the sealant in between the mating surfaces by tapping the parts with a wooden hammer or similar tools. It is acceptable to lightly hit in a smooth, thin gasket scraper into the mating surface, but, in this case, a sufficient caution is required not to damage the mating surface. The oil pan FIPG cutter (Special tool: MD998727) is provided. Thus, use this special tool.
GASKET SURFACE CLEANING
Use a gasket scraper or wire brush to completely remove all the foreign materials adhering to the gasket surface. Check that the FIPG application surface is smooth. There must be no grease or foreign material adhesion to the gasket surface. Do not forget to remove the old FIPG remaining in the mounting hole and tapped hole.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE
Apply the FIPG with a specified diameter and without any gap. Completely enclose around the mounting hole. When the FIPG is not hardened, it can be wiped off. When the FIPG is still moistened (within three minutes), perform the installation to the specified position. At the time of installation, prevent the FIPG from adhering to locations other than it is necessary. After the installation, until a sufficient period of time (approximately for two hours) elapses, do not contact the oil or water to the application area. Also, do not start the engine. Because the FIPG application procedure may differ depending on the application area, apply the FIPG according to the procedure described in the text.
BOLTS AND NUTS WITH STABILIZER FOR COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION
The bolts and nuts with stabilizer for coefficient of friction have been used for the connections such as the suspension arm and crossmember in order to stabilize the axial force and to ensure the high axial force at bolt/nut connections, resulting in improved reliability.
Note. The bolts and nuts with stabilizer for coefficient of friction mean that the bolts and nuts with surface treatment to stabilize and reduce the coefficient of friction, allowing to achieve the stable axial force and to secure the high axial force with low tightening torque.
APPLICATION OF ANTI-CORROSION AGENTS AND UNDERCOATS
Be careful not to apply oil or grease to the heated oxygen sensor. If applied, the sensor may malfunction. Protect the heated oxygen sensor with a cover before applying anti-corrosion agent, etc.

CHECK OIL LEVEL AND CONDITION
| CAUTION | Replace the transmission fluid whenever the transaxle is replaced with a new one or the vehicle is driven in harsh conditions. |
Scheme 71
Scheme 72
- Drive the vehicle until the transmission fluid is warmed up to the normal operating temperature 70 - 80°C (158 - 176°F). NOTE: Use M.U.T.-III. to measure the transmission fluid temperature. NOTE: When a certain amount of time is required to warm up the transmission fluid to the normal operating temperature 70 - 80°C (158 - 176°F), check the oil level referring to the characteristics chart.
- Park the vehicle on a level surface.
- Move the selector lever to every position to fill the torque converter and the hydraulic circuit with the transmission fluid, and then move the selector lever to "P" or "N" range.
- Wipe clean the area around the dipstick, and then remove the dipstick to check the condition of the transmission fluid. NOTE: If the transmission fluid smells burnt or is excessively deteriorated or dirty, the transmission fluid is contaminated with particles of the metal bushings and friction material. In these cases, the transaxle must be overhauled.
- Check that the transmission fluid level is within the "H" area on the dipstick. If the fluid level is low, add the transmission fluid to the "H" level. Transmission fluid: DIA QUEEN CVTF-J1 NOTE: When the transmission fluid level is low, the oil pump sucks air together with the transmission fluid, and produces air bubbles in the hydraulic circuit. The air bubbles in the hydraulic circuit decreases the hydraulic pressure, causing the delayed shift or slippage of the belt, clutch, and brake. When the transmission fluid level is too high, the fluid is stirred by the gear and foams up, and the problems similar to those when the transmission fluid level is low will occur. In either case, air bubbles cause the overheat and oxidation of the transmission fluid, which prevents normal operation of the valve, clutch, and brake. Beside, when the transmission fluid is foamy, it flows out of the transaxle vent hole. This may be taken as the fluid leakage by mistake.
- Insert the dipstick securely.
Scheme 73
- Remove the drain plug on the bottom of the transaxle case to drain the transmission fluid. Draining amount: Approximately 5.1 dm 3 (5.39 qt)
- Install the drain plug with a new gasket to the transaxle case, and tighten it to the specified torque. Tightening torque: 34 ± 2 N.m (25 ± 2 ft-lb) CAUTION: If the transaxle case becomes full before filling 5.1 dm 3 (5.39 qt) of transmission fluid, stop filling the transmission fluid.
- Fill in the new transmission fluid through the filler tube. Filling amount: Approximately 5.1 dm 3 (5.39 qt) Transmission fluid: DIA QUEEN CVTF-J1
- Start up the engine and let it idle for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Move the selector lever to every position, and then move it to the "P" or "N" range.
- Stop the engine and perform the above steps 1 to 5 again.
- Stop the engine, and discharge a small amount of transmission fluid to check for fouling. If fouling is found, repeat steps 1 to 5 until clean transmission fluid comes out.
- Drive the vehicle until the transmission fluid is warmed up to the normal operating temperature 70 - 80°C (158 - 176°F), and check the transmission fluid level. It must be within the "H" area on the dipstick. NOTE: The "COLD" level is for reference only. Use the "H" level as the criteria. NOTE: Use M.U.T.-III. to measure the transmission fluid temperature. NOTE: When a certain amount of time is required to warm up the transmission fluid to the normal operating temperature 70 - 80°C (158 - 176°F), check the fluid level referring to the characteristics chart.
- Adjust the transmission fluid level to the specified level. Refill the transmission fluid when the fluid level is low, and drain the transmission fluid through the drain plug when the fluid level is high.
- Securely insert the dipstick into the filler tube.
- TCM records the deterioration level of the transmission fluid. After replacing the transmission fluid with new one, use M.U.T.-III to reset the deterioration level recorded in TCM.
