Power Transistor

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Mitsubishi Mirage, 1995 Mitsubishi Expo, 1995 Eagle Summit Wagon, and 1995 Eagle Summit. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Disconnect power transistor connector. Using a 1.5-volt dry cell battery, connect negative end of 1.5-volt battery to terminal No. 5 of power transistor and positive end to terminal No. 6. See Fig 1 .
  2. Using an analog ohmmeter, check for continuity between terminals No. 5 and 12 of power transistor. Continuity should exist. With positive end of 1.5-volt battery disconnected, there should be no continuity. Replace power transistor if it fails test.
