2012 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution GSRSECTION Notes
CAUTION:
- If there is any problem in the CAN bus lines, an incorrect diagnostic trouble code may be set. Prior to this diagnosis, diagnose the CAN bus lines.
- Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the CAN bus lines are normal.
- When the steering wheel sensor is replaced, always perform calibration to make ASC-ECU learn the neutral point. (Refer to STEERING WHEEL SENSOR CALIBRATION .)
- When the hydraulic unit (integrated with ASC-ECU) is replaced, after turning the ignition switch ON and OFF (vehicle information from ETACS-ECU is registered), always perform the calibration of steering wheel sensor, G and yaw rate sensor, brake fluid pressure sensor, cut valve, and inlet valve. (Refer to G AND YAW RATE SENSOR CALIBRATION , STEERING WHEEL SENSOR CALIBRATION , MASTER CYLINDER BRAKE FLUID PRESSURE SENSOR CALIBRATION , and CALIBRATION OF CUT VALVE AND INLET VALVE .)
