It's not a sensor. It could be 1: transmissions solenoids needs servicing.
2: transmission fluid needs changing. In this case, a flush instead of the usual drain and refill.

There are a lot of relevant threads relating to your problem.

Ah relay??? Hmm, ok well I glad to hear d good news. CVT tranny problems is rel headache.
Btw, when last yuh change dat fluid?

[ZeroOne]

That reminds of the time my engine had starting problems and would shut off if you slap the relay box, ended up being just a faulty relay.

[BrotherHood]

I in Sando this morning, wa alyuh have for me??

turbobeast??

[ZeroOne]

Meh car giving trouble to start in Park. if I pull down into neutral, same thing. Only sometimes it would immediately start after pulling it down into N.



Starter or Park/Neutral switch?

Check an electrician?

Went by the electrician this morning and found out that I need an in switch.
Who have one to sell? Needed urgently!

is it the one on the tranny

Na mety. It's not the one on the transmission na. And star369, the ignition switch is what the key goes in to so you can start the car. I hurrying to see if I get one in the bamboo this hour.

Ok, so following up on this post.
Got my ignition switch in the bamboo for $400. Got it changed today.
This is the bugger right here. When you find you have to 'rough up' or turn the key harder/with more force to start, this, the ignition switch is beginning to wear.

I got the switch at Mohammed Auto Parts. He's on the side with Grand Bazaar, down to the end of the road, just after the exit to the highway southbound.

I sometimes have to turn the key 3-4 times before I can get the engine to start, the starter was recently replaced so its not that. Most times I have to take the key out completely and reinsert it to start.

The official name is: ENG STARTING SWITCH (I guess eng means engine)
Old P/N: MR449457
New P/N: MN113754

Both refer to the same part, the new part is just 23 USD the old can still be bought for 25 USD. Prices from amayama.com

Already placed my order for this together with some other parts.

[BrotherHood]

Yes, I made a mistake with mety there. I said an 'in' switch. I meant to say an 'ignition switch' which as you just corrected is the ENG Starting Switch.

[nismotrinidappa]

1 ..bro car has the same sticky ignition problem...will inform him of the issue..

2... somebody in price plaza real dig and scrape up the trunk and stole the diamond logo on the trunk.. anybody has a logo or trunk to sell reasonable?

[BrotherHood]

I an all need and have been looking for a Mitsubishi diamond emblem for months now.

[xtech]

That eng starting switch can be easily fixed. Just a little corrosion build up on internal the contacts. Just take it apart and see.

That's what I did when mine started to get to the point where I took 2-3 mins to start in a gas station.

Very embarrassing....

Then have to deal with all the passing "mechanics and electricians" diagnosing that I need a battery a jump start or a starter

[amrit90901]

y'all looking for the all chrome trunk logo or the red and chrome one?
also if the oil unit on the engine is bad would that cause the car to buck while idling or would that b something else?

[ZeroOne]

My electrician checked mine yesterday and said it is worn out, I guess one you clean the contacts ever so often you can prolong the life of the switch

That engine bucking can be a lot of things from a relay to a air sensor to throttle body, plugs, etc. What kind of engine we talking about here?

Of lately im getting the same problem I had this similar problem it was the idle motor but im not to sure abt this 1 tho

[star369]

My cousin was having this same problem weekend and he bought a trottle body

[fras]

No... When the car is at idle and the ac/compressor comes on the idle drops too low and the car cuts off!

Where is this? I would like to get a new one used ones give me a 2 yrs and ting

[Biggs3ne]

The only place u will get a new one is Amayama.com or Diamond Motors, well at least I think so.

Willies located in the bamboo by cipriani college side, I think #3, and he is on the street on the left before the field. He's located on the left hand side of the street and not too far in as well, you will see the sign. Ravi is located even further up the street on the same side as well.
