Are u certain it wasnt TCS? like you said, you were doing a lot of accelerating... it may have been the Traction Control System... where was this light located? Which trim do u have? SL, VR4?

i have a base model. the light came on in the lower middle part of the console. it wasnt traction control and i tried looking it up but cant find anything. it looked like this
with the o and n sorta spaced.

But still in the instrument cluster, right? Like between your tach and speedo?

Well... the only thing I found thats remotely like that... is this:
A technological highlight of the driver's accessory control system is Mitsubishi's ETACS-IV™, a 10-function electronic module that controls variable-speed intermittent windshield wipers, wiper mist cycle, fade-out dome lamp and power door locks with key lock-out prevention. The system is also programmed to allow the driver an extra 30 seconds to operate the power windows and optional sunroof after turning off the ignition.
Thats from some 3kGT site... I dont know why this would show up then... or at all... so I have no real idea why I am even posting this. Who the hell knows...

i must have hit it when my friend was messin around with the power and economy switch. i kept trying to shut it off cuz anyone who keeps that thing on and accelerates knows that gas guage sems to go down a few bars
. but yeah i definitely hit it by accident then and drove all the way home with it on
