WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Mitsubishi Mirage and 1995 Eagle Summit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
WARNING: Follow air bag service precautions to prevent accidental air bag deployment and personal injury. See SERVICE PRECAUTIONS.
NOTE: Ensure battery is fully charged. If battery voltage is too low, SRS warning light will come on. When battery voltage is restored to normal, light will go out. Codes remain stored for no more than about 7 days. Codes can be stored no more than 250 times. After servicing, reconnect negative battery cable. Erase codes using Multi-Use Tester II (MUT-II, MB991502) or Miller DRB-III Scan Tool. Check SRS warning light to verify system operation. See SYSTEM OPERATION CHECK.

  3. If scan tool displays CAN'T COMM, try to communicate with other systems (engine control, etc.). If scan tool cannot communicate with other systems, go to SCAN TOOL CANNOT COMMUNICATE WITH OTHER SYSTEMS. If scan tool can communicate with other systems, go to SCAN TOOL CAN COMMUNICATE WITH OTHER SYSTEMS.
  4. Use scan tool to retrieve code(s). If no codes are set, go to SRS WARNING LIGHT STAYS ON, NO CODES SET. If code(s) are set, record code(s) and service data (fault duration and how many times memory was erased). Go to appropriate CODE procedure.
