onboard computer can it be change
I own a 2008 outlandes ls v6 awd with keyless entry.
I really enjoy my purchase for the driving ,good power ,handling etc.
But what 's the fxxx with the electronic. Am I the only one here please answer me .
Here are the problems:
Keyless entry...yeah right. I can't make it unlock all 4 doors without having the thing in my hand.
And yes the american(U.S) model is programmable to do that .It 's even written in the canadian owner manual but the dealer told me the canadian computer is different and that the manual is wrong.
And it's only the drivers door that's completely stupid!!! I toutch the rear hatch or passenger door and all doors unlock. Great . I toutch the driver handle and nothing unlock except the driver door. Do they think all mitsu driver are alone!!!! Why do my wife have to wait till I open my door and unlock with the button inside.Plus I have a baby so I place the babyseat in my side , I come to my door thinking the rear one will unlock when I toutch the handle so I don't have to have my key/remote in hand because they are already full with a baby and baby stuff.
So I tried to unlock the doors before taking my dauther in my arms so i can put the key remote safely in my pocket...But by the time I get to the truck ALL THE DOORS ARE LOCK!!!!!
Automaticaly W.T.F!!!
The same problem happens at the grocerie store. You cannot put your stuff on the back seat bacause you have to unlock with your remote a few second before opening the door because it lock itself back!!!You cannot unlock from inside the store before getting you hands full or stuff.No No! You have to open the door with your remote in hands scratching the paint.
And why do I make a big deal of this .... Because the problem didn't exist when we had a simple remote with a simple button and it simpely unlocked all of the car doors
for as long as you don't lock them again by yourself!!!
The onboard computer now. again simple and very anoying because mitsubishi created the problems.
Try to read your odometer when a door is open. Like at your service for oil change and they ask for the mileage and you go check in the car and ... oh... I have to take a seat in the car , close the door, tun-rn the plastic knob press the button for 3 second because ithe screen tell me I have faulty tire pressure sensor because my winter rims are on...etc
or Fuel level again with door open even if the vehicule is running.
And why icy road warning!!! Do mitsubishi think we are that dumb!!!
Just too many warnings for dumb people .You can even program it to alert you after 1 hour of driving
There is a loud BEEEEP!!! and a cup of coffe appears on the screen . How smart is that.I just think that some engeneers should have kill themselve before working for mitsubishi.
As for the radio control on the stering wheel. Why doesn't it scan my preprogram radio station instead of zapping all the channels. That's stupid I have to look at the radio forever to catch a station .Completely useless!!!!

Re: onboard computer can it be change
First thing
to NCMC ! When you get a chance introduce yourself in the new member section with so pic of your ride !
Yes you can get the dealer to program the sensor to open all door's when you touch the drive side I got mine done this past summer and I have a 07 XLS and man it's sweet to have all door open at the same time !
And for the warning unfortunately you will have to live with it since we can't disabled those, I even called mitsu in the US and Canada and same story no go it's there to stay like the TPMS warning when running winter tire's with no sensor's !

Unlocking doors ...other options
Does anyone know the proceedure to change the locking and unlocking doors?A manual or guide so I don t have to go to the dealer?I have seen a manual that you may be able to open windows and close them with your pass key,maybe its a European thing.
