Ralliart 'Service required' light and CEL

Postby quachj » Thu Apr 17, 2014 11:44 pm

hi guys

i own a 09 RA and my 'Service required' light and CEL came on the last 2 days the car has driven 150,000~ km so far.

i was in a parking lot waiting for a car to leave when all a sudden my screen lights up yellow and the service require light comes on and then there is a CEL in the corner up top, the car was driving fine (no jumping gears or anything) so i turn off and on the car to kill the light and then the lights decide to pop up again today but the car is still driving fine now. so i am not too sure what the problem is. i was wondering if you guys can shine some light on my problem

BTW the car is completely stock

thanks in advance
Jason

if it's stock take it to mitsubishi and get them to see what the code is. Unless you have a tactrix cable and evoscan 2.8 then check it yourself.

If its a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark stop driving the car immediatrely its the timing chain light. If not exactly what is the symbol and code someone may know or have listed it on evolution.net
