This logs a SRS error which can only be cleared by a dealer. (But I'm just repeating info from previous threads)

Oh dear, bugger, thanks for you reply Max

Hi all, anyone have any ideas about this or is Max right it has to go to the dealer to be reset?

Good chance you will yes.

Check with a local auto electrician first to see if they can do a system check / clear the error code. If not then speak to Mitsubishi.

I had a talk to a policeman a few years back. He was doing a roadworthy on my car at Regency Park, Adelaide. Not just any check, the full works, as it was a repairable writeoff from WA that I had fixed, and it had to pass all checks before being registered in SA. One of the things he checked was the SRS light, but it performed as it should - on when ignition on, but off soon after. He explained that an SRS error would be an automatic fail. The system could only be reset by a dealer, and he would want a full written report on the whole SRS system being functional, before he could pass the car for registration.

So, in short, it needs to be reset by a Mitsu dealer, or someone with the right equipment. Just disconnecting the battery for a while won't do it.

Thanks for that Max, my rego is due so I'm sure it wont pass while the SRS light is on, so I learn't something don't start the car with the air bag removed, cheers

Just take it to the local Mitsubishi dealer and they will hook up the Mutt3 or whatever it is and clear the code ...

you may be charged ,or ,if you are lucky,you may not.

Ring up a few before hand and find out.
