Mitsubishi Outlander XL. Manual — part 767

HOW TO READ AND ERASE DIAGNOSTIC

TROUBLE CODES

Required Special Tools:

｠

MB991958: Scan Tool (M.U.T.-III Sub Assembly)

｠

MB991824: Vehicles Communication Interface (V.C.I.)

｠

MB991827: M.U.T.-III USB Cable

｠

MB991910: M.U.T.-III Main Harness A (Vehicles with
CAN communication system)

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before
connecting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.

NOTE:

If the battery voltage is low, diagnostic trouble

codes will not be set. Check the battery if scan tool
MB991958 does not display.

1.

Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.

2.

Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

3.

Select "System select" from the start-up screen.

4.

Select "From 2006 MY" of "Model Year." When the "Vehicle
Information" is displayed, check the contents.

5.

Select "ETACS" from "System List", and press the "OK"
button.

NOTE:

When the "Loading Option Setup" list is displayed,

check the applicable item.

6.

Select "Diagnostic Trouble Code."

7.

If a DTC is set, it is shown.

8.

Choose "Erase DTCs" to erase the DTC.

CHECK OF FREEZE FRAME DATA

The freeze frame data can be checked by using the
scan tool (GROUP 00, How to Cope with Intermittent
Malfunction P.00-15).

When detecting fault and storing the DTC, the ECU
connected to CAN bus line obtains the data before the

determination of the DTC and the data when the DTC
is determined, and then stores the ECU status of that
time. By analyzing each data from scan tool, the
troubleshooting can be performed more efficiently.
The displayed items are as the table below.

ID CODES REGISTRATION JUDGMENT TABLE

M14209100048USA0000010000

Do not replace the engine control module and
KOS-ECU at the same time. When replacing
several ECUs, always replace one ECU at a time,
register the necessary IDs in it, and then replace
the next ECU.
The individual unique ID code is stored in the
transponder (small transmitter) and KOS-ECU
integrated in the emergency key, engine control

module (ECM), keyless operation key, and steering
lock unit for KOS. Under the conditions shown in the
table, the corresponding ID code has to be registered
with KOS-ECU or the ECM again.

NOTE:

The KOS-ECU memory can memorise the maximum

4 different keyless operation keys (keyless
operation key ID codes) and maximum 8 different
emergency keys (key IDs).
