Clearing Diagnostic Trouble Codes

NOTE: This is the only information provided by Mitsubishi for clearing trouble codes for this system.

HOW TO READ AND ERASE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

Required Special Tool:
MB991502: Scan Tool (MUT-II)

CAUTION: To prevent damage to the scan tool, turn the ignition switch "OFF" before connecting or disconnecting the scan tool.

NOTE: If battery voltage is low, diagnostic trouble codes may not be output. Be sure to check the battery and charging system before continuing.

NOTE: If battery cable is disconnected or if the powertrain control module (PCM) connector is disconnected, the diagnostic trouble codes will be erased. Do not disconnect the battery cable or PCM connector until the diagnostic trouble codes have been recorded.

NOTE: If a DTC is erased, its "freeze frame" data will be also erased and the readiness test status will be reset. If necessary, take a note of the "freeze frame" data before erasing the DTC.

PROVISIONAL DTCs [MUT-II OBD-II Test Mode - Results (Mode 5)]
MUT-II will display the Provisional DTCs reported by PCM if the PCM detects some malfunction for "Misfire" "Fuel System" and "Comprehensive" monitoring during a SINGLE Driving Cycle. The intended use of this data is to assist the technician after a vehicle repair, and after clearing diagnostic information, by reporting test result after a SINGLE Driving Cycle.
