Lights - Headlight Adjustment Special Note


9217mitsubishi01

NO.: TSB-92-54-002

DATE: February, 1992

MODEL: 1992 Expo and EXPO LRV


SUBJECT:

HEADLIGHT ADJUSTMENT


NOTE: This TSB replaces ATIN # 91-54-001, dated 11/12/91.

PURPOSE

This Technical Service Bulletin emphasizes the need to perform accurate headlight adjustment on Expo and Expo LRV, especially during PDIs and 1,000-mile vehicle check-ups.

AFFECTED VEHICLES

All 1992 Expos and Expo LRVS.

DESCRIPTION

Both Expo and Expo LRV are equipped with a high technology headlight system that directs light differently than other Mitsubishi Motor's vehicles. The headlight lenses are designed to disperse most of the light towards the right side of the vehicle. While this makes the left headlight beam appear low and pointed toward the right, it is NORMAL.

Since some of your customers might mistake this new light pattern as being out of adjustment, it is very important to insure the Expo and Expo LRV headlights are adjusted properly during PDI and also during the vehicle's 1000-mile check-up.

For proper adjustment of the headlights, refer to the 1992 Expo/Expo LRV Service Manual, Volume 2, Pages 54-39 through 54-41. Additionally, make sure each vehicle has a full tank of fuel or approximately 100-pounds of weight placed over the rear axle. This will insure the headlights can be accurately adjusted.
