hey guys i got another ACD light question... now i know that the 3 lights are abd and ive read the ACD sticky but my problem isnt in there and i was hoping someone could shed some light on my situation...

k so i have the 3 lights on and checked my fluids its prefect no leaks and its full, but sometimes ill be driving and it will go back to normal with 1 light on and everything works so im not sure what the problem could be... any help would be great
thanks!!

 

you might need to bleed it

 

you could check your wheel speed sensors make sure a wire isnt exposed or barely connected

 

thanks for the amazingly quick responses haha where can i find the wheel speed sensor at?

 

it plugs into the sensor thats bolted to the tranmission. It's right in front of the rear tranny mount...... If your speedo works, then chances are it has nothing to do with it...... Take your car by the dealership, and they can bleed it for you. They have to hook it up to a machince, that cycles through all the ACD modes, while opening the bleeder valve on the t-case to get any air out that might be trapped in it. Did you do anything to your car recently, or to the t-case/transmission to make those lights come on in the first place??

 

ooo ok ill have to do that then cuz the speedo works fine... and no havent done anything that would effect that, i was just driving home one day and they came on so i pulled over shut the car off checked everything out turned it back on they were gone then drove a few more miles and it came back on and now they stay on and periodicly turn off

 

You could have something going on with the ACD pump too.... Make sure everything is plugged in to it.

Besides the fact that the lights are all on, are you having any issues while driving it?

 

i checkd all wires going to the pump they are all connected and looked fine, and besides the lights it drives perfect

 

I would take it by a shop that can hook a scanner up to it and see if they can communicate with it at all..... I'd tell you to bring it by my shop, but i'm thousands of miles away from you! ha ha ha

 

haha yeah thousands of miles away is a little far haha but thanks ill have to bring it somewhere around here and see if they can tell mewhats wrong

 

Did you get anything figured out??

 

In the manual, it says contact the dealer if all 3 lights are illuminated. I had this issue and this is what happened...

The dealer asked if i recently had the clutch replaced? Because if so, the line may need to be bled and the ACD needs to be reset. I didn't have the clutch replaced so I brought it in and they checked it out. The lights would come on during both regular driving and during hard acceleration. They ultimately found there was a relay issue with the ACD pump, and they replaced the ACD pump.

Hope this helped, let us know what happens.

 

no havent figured anything out yet, and yeah im thinking its something with the pump itself or maybe a relay so im gonna bring it to the mitsu around here and have them chec k it out
any body else have anything to add though?

 

Hope its not your pump!!

 

yeah me to
