My mitsubisi eclipce wont start sometimes. When I turn on sometimes it jumps and jerks but never catches fire
The
following are the general instructions on the start of diagnosing any
electronically controlled engine or transmission problem.
The
engine and the automatic transmission (transmission control is only
for automatics, engine is still computer controlled no matter the
transmission type) in this vehicle are computer controlled and in
most cases when a fault occurs a fault code is stored in the memory
of the computer control module. There are exception to this, such as
the Mass Airflow Meter and fuel pressure problems. What must be done
is to have all the basic testing done such as a scan of the system
for fault codes as well as a check with a live data scanner tool for
engine functions that are not within range of normal, a trained
technician is required to know what is correct and what isn't, then
based on careful diagnostics done from a factory repair manual the
correct part is replaced or the wiring repaired or the computer
replaced (known as the PCM), which is very rarely the problem. Other
basic checks must be done as well such as mechanical problems with
the engine as well as engine state of tune and mileage on the engine.
The transmission can have mechanical issues as well such as no gear
engagement at all or a failed pump or other pressure related
problems. Also engine mechanical problems ca cause many
drive-ability related problem such as rough idle and other symptoms
Po715-imput turbin speed
The code means the input speed sensor in the transmission is not sending the correct signal to the computer. The sensor would need to be tested.
Mitsubishi radio code
You will need to go to the dealer with the VIN of the car that it came out of to get the code, Most dealers will also ask for proof that you own the vehicle. They will then charge you a nice fee for the information.

Ac not working
The first thing to do is check the charge in the AC system with a set of AC pressure gauges that attach to the charging port, if the pressure is low or non existent then you have a low charge and this means you have a leak in the AC system. The leak must be found and repaired and then the system evacuated and recharged with the correct level of refrigerant
Why does my mitsubishi eclipse die when air is running?
Try doing this service to cure this.
his problem
is commonly caused by a dirty automatic idle speed control valve and
throttle valve. Buy a can of throttle valve cleaner from NAPA or
Carquest (made by CRC chemicals) and spray it into the air intake
while the engine is running, use up about 1/2 the can, engine will
try to stall hold the speed up, shut it down and let it soak for 30
minutes, restart and blow out the remaining fluid, shut it down and
disconnect the negative battery cable for 5 Min's to reset the base
idle control
Passenger side headlight is dull; I have replaced with a new bulb, but it's still dull.
Almost certainly an earth problem. Bad or dirty connection to a part of the body of the car. Check for any corrosion on light fitting area, clean if dirty. Check wiring lead connections. Clean if corroded. Try spraying with WD40 or similar as this will prevent any further corrosion and ensure better earthing.Also Check wattage rating and colour type on the globe you have put in. You should really replace both headlight globes at the same time to ensure similar quality of light is produced assuming all other factors are good.Good luck with it, hope this helps.
