First place to look is the owner's manual. Should be a roadside emergency chapter in it with a list of fuses and usually a schematic to locate it. If worse comes to worse a local AutoZone or Advance Auto store will generally change the fuse for you if you are uncomfortable with the process.

This conditions sometimes occurs when there is oil leaking into the starter casing. An easy check is to touch a wrench to the underside of the starter. If it sticks to the starter, you have shorted out circuit. Check the wiring connection to the solenoid for breaks or cranks. No shorts, then try replacing the solenoid. If that doesn't solve your problem, you'll have to replace the starter.Check back with me if you require any further assistance in removing or replacing the components.

Locate the two belts on the left side (passenger side) of your Mitsubishi Lancer. The outer belt is a serpentine belt, operating four pulleys and the inner belt is your alternator belt.

2 Follow the serpentine (outer) belt to the three pulleys lined up vertically near the front of the engine compartment. Locate the middle pulley, which is the tension pulley for the belt.

3 Loosen the bolt on the middle pulley with a socket wrench by turning counter-clockwise. Do not remove the bolt, just turn it a couple of times. Loosen the tensioner bolt on the side of the of the pulley, facing the front of the vehicle.

4 Remove the serpentine belt and then loosen the bolt on the alternator. With the alternator loose, move it forward so that the alternator belt loosens up and then remove belt from the pulleys.

5 Install the new alternator belt by placing it over both inside pulleys. Tighten the tension on the alternator belt by moving the alternator back and keeping tension on it by holding it back with a long screwdriver. While the alternator belt is tight, use a socket wrench to tighten up the bolt on the alternator.

6 Place the serpentine belt back on the pulleys and then use a socket wrench on the bolt on the front of the tension pulley. Once the serpentine belt is tight, tighten up the bolt in the middle of the tension pulley.

7 Start the Mitsubishi Lancer's engine to test the alternator belt and make sure it is working properly. Once you have verified it is working, turn the engine off.

This is usually caused by a bad idler or tensioner pulley. If the bearing for one of these pulleys goes bad, it can cause the pulley to kick sideways just a little bit, which is often enough to misalign or even throw the belt.To check, remove the belt and check the idler and tensioner pulleys for free play in the bearing.Hope this was helpful
