Could be a restricted exhaust such as a damaged catalytic converter. Could also be a problem with fuel delivery. If you have a check engine light illuminated, check for codes.
HeyKen==You need to repair what turned it on in the first place then have auto zone remove the trouble codes. GoodluckJoe
disconnect the battery for a couple of minutes, if it comes back on after you drive the computer is getting an error code from the engine check the codes to see whats causing it
you have to go to a autoparts that check and see what codes come up
You may think there is nothing wrong but there is. If the check engine light is on there will be codes stored in the ECM. Have the codes read. The codes will help you determine what the cause is.
it's under the glove box [behind] to the far right [blue].
check your exhaust it could be you cadilidic converter Have someone read the codes that are set. The codes will help lead you to the problem.
You might have the codes located in your owners manual. If you dont, then try calling Mitsubishi and ask them for codes or where you might find them. I know when I take the battery out of mine the radio requires a code and you only get three tries to put them in otherwise you have to take the battery out then put it in again. Hope this helps.

There are dozens of things that turn the light on. Get the codes read at the auto zone.
Jumping the pin connector on the ECU will allow the check engine light to flash on the dash console. The check engine light will flash repeatedly and show codes.
Take the car to a repair shop and have them read out the failure codes via the OBD2 connector under the dash. The codes will tell you what parts of the system need attention.
I would check your battery to make sure it is holding a good charge. If it is getting weak, it may not let you retrieve any codes. Try hooking a charger to it 15 minutes before plugging the scanner in. I hope your ECM is ok. Good luck ......
