Diamante (Without Traction Control)

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2003 Mitsubishi Outlander, 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport, 2003 Mitsubishi Montero, 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer, and 2003 Mitsubishi Galant. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. If using scan tool, connect scan tool to OBD-II Data Link Connector (DLC) located below instrument panel, to right of steering column. See Figure. If using ohmmeter, disconnect TP sensor connector. See Fig 1. Connect ohmmeter leads to TP sensor terminals No. 2 (closed throttle position switch) and No. 1 (sensor ground). See Fig 2. Go to next step.
  2. Insert feeler gauge with thickness of .055" (1.4 mm) no more than .118" (3 mm) deep between levers as illustrated. See Fig 3. Inserting feeler gauge more than .118" (3 mm) will result in incorrect adjustment. If using scan tool, turn ignition on and monitor closed throttle switch on/off status. If using ohmmeter, leave ignition off and monitor closed throttle switch continuity. Go to next step.
  3. Loosen Throttle Position (TP) sensor mounting bolt. Turn TP sensor body fully counterclockwise. See Fig 4. Scan tool should indicate closed throttle position switch is on. Ohmmeter should indicate continuity.
  4. Slowly turn TP sensor body clockwise until point at which scan tool indicates closed throttle position switch is off, or ohmmeter indicates no continuity. See Fig 5. Hold TP sensor in this position and tighten mounting bolt.
  5. If using scan tool, go to step  7. If using voltmeter, connect a test harness set between TP sensor connectors which have been disconnected. See Fig 6.
  6. Connect a voltmeter between TP sensor terminal No. 1 (sensor ground) and terminal No. 3 (sensor output.) Turn ignition on and go to next step.
  7. Check TP sensor output voltage. TP sensor output voltage should be 400-1000 millivolts. If TP sensor output voltage is not as specified, check TP sensor and related circuit. If TP sensor output voltage is as specified, remove feeler gauge and turn ignition off.
