Its going to be hard to diagnose it because its a euro spec DSM.

to the original poster:

take it to your Mitsubishi or Chrysler dealer and have them look that up in their euro spec manual.

I think most of us US folks would be hard pressed to know.

Maybe the Canadian folk can help us out? somewhat similar, right?

Looks like the lines comming from the top woudl signal someting is too hot.

might be oil temp, or is your car a auto

mabye that is the auto tranny temp light

I'd say an overheat on the floor temp above the cataclysmic diverter.

Its a manual, but has cruise control and all seems like it was auto once..

well, ifit was an auto once, then it could be the auto temp, and its just not plugged in anymore.
mabye look around the engine bay for a spare conenctor,

my abs is unhooked and the light stays on.

I will try to look for it... So there is nothing to worry about Right?

has this light Always been on?
as long as you can recall?

if it was the auto temp, the 5speed ecu wouldnt support the function, thus why your diagnostic wouldnt show it

hmm.. I bought the car in this condition like last Thursday, paid
$ 1600. The guy who sold me said its been on since i got it even the engine check like according to him he is a mechanic himself.. there is no turbo thats why these lights are on..

He said.. You dont have to worry about it.. I checked in the used scraped car parts market here. the Engine and the Gear box is only
1000 Dirhams, i.e USD $273


I am just doing my homework , trying to diagnose it with the help of you guys.. if there is something wrong you know..

Regards..

We all have the symbol on our cars there is just no bulb behind it. However, if you stick a bulb in it the light will light up. Looks like someone was replacing cluster lights and found the blank one and put a light in it and wa la it lit up. Here are a few pics of what is behind the 2G clusters.

Alarm lamp (? ? Red)
1) While travelling when the lamp lights up, until it goes out, please lower speed. If it goes out, as before it can drive.

2) While lighting up when parking, please avoid on the combustible. The lamp does not go out when and, when often lighting up, please receive inspection at the nearby service department. * When starting, the lamp lights up one time.

Sure sounds like a floor temp sensor. It's for when the cat overheats.
