Question for those with MMCS

Postby debonaire » Fri Nov 11, 2011 3:12 pm

I have a base Ralliart that is almost due for first service.

I was wondering can someone with MMCS tell me how many levels of adjustment does the sensitivity of the dusk sensing headlights have? Driving home from work at this time of year, I'd prefer them to come on a bit earlier. But if there is only like 3 levels of sensitivity, won't ask them to adjust it because I don't want it coming on everytime I pass under a street sign :P

I'm assuming there is the same adjustment whether its via MMCS or by Mitsubishi doing it at service.

I haven't got the luxury pack so no MMCS to change it with, unless there is another way I don't know about.

through the centre dash screen I believe.. will have to double check it..

Park the car then scroll through the screens till you get to the settings screen .. its in there.. but will double check.

I've already fiddled with all those settings, its not one of those. Alternative indicator noise was an interesting find though *alien* The user manual says to see your dealer to change it - so I'm guessing its an OBD job.

fair enough.. you can set it on to come on earlier... the system is designed to turn on after a certian period of low light.. so a sign post will cause it to turn on :)

Plus you can control it manually if it does turn on too soon :)

I'm quite sure there are only 3 settings... earlier.. normal and later... and of course off.

yes there are 3 settings. I have it set to turn on as late as possible.
Unfortunately, it turns on even when I pass under a 4 lane bridge.

Out of those 3 settings i choose to have them come on earliest setting, IMO a must for those of us who drive Black, Grey or even Silver coloured cars as these colours match the road and are harder to see in Gloomy conditions

Just as a follow up, turns out there are 5 settings. They changed it from 3 to 1, to come on earliest, and I have found it certainly isn't overly sensitive even at this setting.
