Where is the ETACs ecu in 2009 lancer - Cars & Trucks

The '02 Mitsubishi Galant does not have a serviceable turn signal flasher. The flashing operation is control by the Electronic Time Alarm Control System (ETACS) Electronic Control Unit (ECU). The ETACS ECU is located behind the left side of the dashboard, attached to the fuse junction block. It receives power from Multi-Purpose Fuse 2 (7.5A) located in the same junction block as well as from Dedicated Fuse 8 (10A) in the engine compartment relay box. Abnormal turn signal operation could be caused by a faulty turn signal switch, wiring or the ETACS ECU.

a HOnda Mitsubishi? huh?
MITSU: sport or non sport?
for some its a blessing, vast posts world wide to on how to kill em.
but is:
first in all electric fails check all dash and engine bay fuses.
ETACS ECU , is the controller, on this car.
Electric Time & Alarm Control System
1: does the chim work on all other chime active errors? , like the KEY reminder feature? if that works , id bet the ETACS is ok.

2: the door switch bad (drivers?) the door switch is like #1 fail on all cars. they get dirty , fail to close, (rust) and bingo bad switch.
the way to diagnose it it is to use the FSM book.
the door switch ground the Door ajar pin in ETACS,
so if the voltage on the wire is not at 0v door closed, the switch is
bad, or the ground wire to it is rusted and bad.

the operators guide is free, get it, and read it, and see all things
that make the chime sound. can be many things. ETACS has a large number of inputs..

Hope this helps. It's for a 2004 eclipse remote start.

Good luck.

The front radio control bezel has failed and needs to be replaced. You can unplug the ETACs ecu and plug it back in and it will wake the panel up, but it will only last a few hours before it happens again.

This is an emerging problem on 08+ Lancers and 07+ Outlanders
