Purchased this kit for my son's 2005 Lancer. Received it quickly and on time. After reading through the instructions and starting out, ran into a couple gotcha's. A quick call to tech support and Michael hooked me up. Finished the install and took it for a test drive. Works Perfectly!!! Looks like factory cruise. Couldn't be happier. Big shout out to Michael at tech support for his help. Highly recommend the Cruise Control Store and the Rostra Cruise products.

Mitsubishi Lancer Cruise Control Components

However comfortable the seats of your Mitsubishi Lancer are, long travels are still rather tiresome because of the need to be concentrated on many things at the same time. The introduction of the cruise control system significantly simplified the lives of millions of motorists, as now they don't need to glance at the speedometer every now and then and keep the right foot on the gas pedal in order to control the speed of their cars. Cruise control does this job for you, so the only thing you need to do is to set the speed your car must maintain.

A cruise control is quite a complex system which consists of a number of parts and components such as relays, sensors , cables, and the brain of the system – the control module. Even the smallest component must operate well for the entire system to function properly. If you have noticed that your Lancer cannot maintain the set speed when driving even over flat ground, or if it goes over the required speed, a cable or sensor probably needs replacement. Should the system stop working at all, check the control module. Take advantage of our collection of Mitsubishi Lancer cruise control components to find top-notch replacement parts.

Does the Mitsubishi Lancer model from 2003 have cruise control?

The Mitsubishi Lancer will continue to be produced for a second year.

Mitsubishi unveiled the Lancer Evolution, a special variant with 271 horsepower and 17-inch wheels, in the middle of the year.

ES, LS, and O-Z Rally are the three Lancer body types. All Lancers come equipped as standard with a CD player, power steering, front bucket seats, cloth upholstery, and full power equipment. Cruise control, keyless entry, and alloy wheels are features of the LS and O-Z.

The 2.0 liter inline four that powers the Lancer produces 120 horsepower and 130 pound-feet of torque.

A four-speed automatic transmission is an option for the ES and O-Z models, which come standard with a five-speed manual transmission. The LS van will only have an automatic. 26/33 mpg for the manual and 24/30 mpg for the automatic are the projected fuel economy ratings.

Mitsubishi’s cheap Mirage was replaced by the Lancer, which offers a more luxurious ride and a more roomy interior.

When fitted with a manual transmission, the Lancer accelerates reasonably well, although the automatic is rather unresponsive.

The cabin is shielded from annoying road and wind noise, and handling abilities are above average for its class.

Customers have criticized the Lancer for lacking safety features, such as ABS and side airbags, which are only offered on the mid-level LS model.

What does a car’s cruise control do?

If you drive at a consistent speed, cruise control is a useful feature. You can set your car to a specific pace using an electric system, which frees up your foot from the accelerator pedal. Therefore, it can reduce stress and foot tiredness after a long drive. Utilizing cruise control will also result in higher fuel efficiency, which is a wonderful perk. If you drive at a constant speed rather than accelerating on each stretch of open road, your car will use a lot less fuel. Sharp acceleration causes your engine to work harder, spending up to 60% more gasoline than someone who employs cruise control. Ultimately, if you let your car to keep a constant cruising speed on its own, you can easily conserve fuel.

Adaptive cruise control is the state-of-the-art in cruise control today. Now, this smart system will be in almost all autos. With adaptive cruise control, you can choose your preferred travel speed just like with traditional cruise control. The adaptive cruise control, on the other hand, uses the forward-mounted sensors to maintain a safe distance and constant speed between your vehicle and the vehicle in front of you. For instance, adaptive cruise control will automatically lower the speed of your car and maintain the predetermined distance if the automobile in front of it starts to slow down. Many claim that adaptive cruise control is a potential step toward driverless vehicles. Since you must maintain complete control of the vehicle and keep your hands on the wheel, autonomous driving is not nearly possible.

ACC Res: What Does It Mean?

Accelerate/resume is referred to as ACC/RES. Once the cruise has been set and has been interrupted for whatever reason (a stoplight, for example), you can hit resume and the vehicle will cruise at the chosen MPH.

Whether the Evo 8 has cruise control

The Rostra Cruise Control kit is intended to install a cruise control system in vehicles that did not already have one.

Using a Rostra cruise control switch that is positioned on the steering column, you can choose the speed you want to travel at (sold separately).

The Rostra cruise control monitors engine load and speed after you choose your preferred speed to guarantee that your car maintains that pace while driving.

For convenience, you can utilize this switch to quickly slow down or speed up from your cruise. Set speed, tap up/down (1 mph per tap), coast/reduce speed, resume/accelerate, and controlled resume rate are all features of the cruise controls.

Is it acceptable to always utilize the cruise control?

Using cruise control when driving in the rain, snow, hail, sleet or ice, slipperyroads can affect the system’s ability to maintain a constant vehicle speed. When using cruise control at an excessively high speed on rainy roads, the car may hydroplane if it hits any standing water. Operation of the cruise control may cause a skid or spin on conditions with very little traction, such as ice and snow. Avoid using cruise control on slick roads and drive carefully.

Use of brakes during cruise control

The throttle is used by cruise control to regulate your car’s speed in the same manner as you would. The throttle cable and the cable used by the cruise control, which is powered by an actuator via a vacuum instead of the throttle pedal, are typically located side by side in a car with a cable-driven throttle. When the cruise control is activated, the throttle cable moves along with the actuator’s “second” cable.

Naturally, the system will be an electrical setup in a car with a fly-by-wire throttle. However, in both cases, the system is intended to alter the engine’s output, which accelerates or retards the vehicle. Usually, the cruise control only affects the throttle, never the brakes. Additionally, if your vehicle has an automatic transmission, shifting gears won’t interfere with cruise control.

How fast does cruise control function?

With cruise control, you can maintain a minimum speed of 25 mph or more without having to press the pedal all the time. Use your cruise control sparingly when: When you CANNOT drive safely at a constant speed, cruise control can be hazardous.

Cruise Control problems of the 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer

One problem related to cruise control has been reported for the 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer based on all problems reported for the 2002 Lancer.

1 Cruise Control problem

In October of 2003, a technical bulletin was issued on my car. The bulletin reads: 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer 02 - blower [part 138110] TSB 0355008 NHTSA , October 01, 2003 : replacement: summary: debris (such as leaves, etc) entering the front cowl area may clog the evaporator housing drain tube. If this occurs, the evaporator housing may fill up with condensation and overflow into the passenger compartment, and into the blower mot. . . In the first quarter of 2005, I paid my local Mitsubishi dealer $310. 50 to replace my blower motor because debris had clogged the motor causing it to short out and resulting in leaving my passenger floor board under an inch of water. My car now, is out of warranty. However, if I had known there was a problem, I could have bought a filter to prevent this problem. My question at what point does NHTSA make technical service bulletins into recalls? it is absolutely absurd when my dealer informs me that TSB's are only fixed if a customer complains about the car. It's just plain wrong for Mitsubishi to know there is something potentially wrong with your car and not inform you of it. For instance there is another bulletin on the temperature control knob in my car. Now, I read these TSB's and it just so happened that Mitsubishi was aware of the problem when my car was under warranty. I had to replace the cv boot, the valve covers and seals, and when I got the blower motor replaced I had to replace the thermostat and redo my coolant. I'm also currently having a problem with my cruise control. Every time I crank my car up, my cruise control is already on. I turn the cruise control off, and turn my car back on, and the cruise control is on again. I was two days before paying $600 for the torque converter to be replaced, and finally a recall was issued, thank god! how many things have to go wrong with my car for it to be deemed a lemon and made to be sent back? lord, somebody please reply back to me and tell me what to do!?!.

In Transit: Notes from the Underground

Jun 06 2018.

Spend some time in one of Moscow’s finest museums.

Subterranean commuting might not be anyone’s idea of a good time, but even in a city packing the war-games treasures and priceless bejeweled eggs of the Kremlin Armoury and the colossal Soviet pavilions of the VDNKh , the Metro holds up as one of Moscow’s finest museums. Just avoid rush hour.

The Metro is stunning and provides an unrivaled insight into the city’s psyche, past and present, but it also happens to be the best way to get around. Moscow has Uber, and the Russian version called Yandex Taxi , but also some nasty traffic. Metro trains come around every 90 seconds or so, at a more than 99 percent on-time rate. It’s also reasonably priced, with a single ride at 55 cents (and cheaper in bulk). From history to tickets to rules — official and not — here’s what you need to know to get started.

A Brief Introduction Buying Tickets Know Before You Go (Down) Rules An Easy Tour

A Brief Introduction

Moscow’s Metro was a long time coming. Plans for rapid transit to relieve the city’s beleaguered tram system date back to the Imperial era, but a couple of wars and a revolution held up its development. Stalin revived it as part of his grand plan to modernize the Soviet Union in the 1920s and 30s. The first lines and tunnels were constructed with help from engineers from the London Underground, although Stalin’s secret police decided that they had learned too much about Moscow’s layout and had them arrested on espionage charges and deported.

The beauty of its stations (if not its trains) is well-documented, and certainly no accident. In its illustrious first phases and particularly after the Second World War, the greatest architects of Soviet era were recruited to create gleaming temples celebrating the Revolution, the USSR, and the war triumph. No two stations are exactly alike, and each of the classic showpieces has a theme. There are world-famous shrines to Futurist architecture, a celebration of electricity, tributes to individuals and regions of the former Soviet Union. Each marble slab, mosaic tile, or light fixture was placed with intent, all in service to a station’s aesthetic; each element, f rom the smallest brass ear of corn to a large blood-spattered sword on a World War II mural, is an essential part of the whole.

The Metro is a monument to the Soviet propaganda project it was intended to be when it opened in 1935 with the slogan “Building a Palace for the People”. It brought the grand interiors of Imperial Russia to ordinary Muscovites, celebrated the Soviet Union’s past achievements while promising its citizens a bright Soviet future, and of course, it was a show-piece for the world to witness the might and sophistication of life in the Soviet Union.

It may be a museum, but it’s no relic. U p to nine million people use it daily, more than the London Underground and New York Subway combined. (Along with, at one time, about 20 stray dogs that learned to commute on the Metro.)

In its 80+ year history, the Metro has expanded in phases and fits and starts, in step with the fortunes of Moscow and Russia. Now, partly in preparation for the World Cup 2018, it’s also modernizing. New trains allow passengers to walk the entire length of the train without having to change carriages. The system is becoming more visitor-friendly. (There are helpful stickers on the floor marking out the best selfie spots .) But there’s a price to modernity: it’s phasing out one of its beloved institutions, the escalator attendants. Often they are middle-aged or elderly women—“ escalator grandmas ” in news accounts—who have held the post for decades, sitting in their tiny kiosks, scolding commuters for bad escalator etiquette or even bad posture, or telling jokes . They are slated to be replaced, when at all, by members of the escalator maintenance staff.

For all its achievements, the Metro lags behind Moscow’s above-ground growth, as Russia’s capital sprawls ever outwards, generating some of the world’s worst traffic jams . But since 2011, the Metro has been in the middle of an ambitious and long-overdue enlargement; 60 new stations are opening by 2020. If all goes to plan, the 2011-2020 period will have brought 125 miles of new tracks and over 100 new stations — a 40 percent increase — the fastest and largest expansion phase in any period in the Metro’s history.

Buying Tickets

• Ticket machines have a button to switch to English.
• You can buy specific numbers of rides: 1, 2, 5, 11, 20, or 60. Hold up fingers to show how many rides you want to buy.
• There is also a 90-minute ticket , which gets you 1 trip on the metro plus an unlimited number of transfers on other transport (bus, tram, etc) within 90 minutes.
• Or, you can buy day tickets with unlimited rides: one day (218₽/ US$4), three days (415₽/US$7) or seven days (830₽/US$15). Check the rates here to stay up-to-date.
• If you’re going to be using the Metro regularly over a few days, it’s worth getting a Troika card , a contactless, refillable card you can use on all public transport. Using the Metro is cheaper with one of these: a single ride is 36₽, not 55₽. Buy them and refill them in the Metro stations, and they’re valid for 5 years, so you can keep it for next time. Or, if you have a lot of cash left on it when you leave, you can get it refunded at the Metro Service Centers at Ulitsa 1905 Goda, 25 or at Staraya Basmannaya 20, Building 1.
• You can also buy silicone bracelets and keychains with built-in transport chips that you can use as a Troika card. (A Moscow Metro Fitbit!) So far, you can only get these at the Pushkinskaya metro station Live Helpdesk and souvenir shops in the Mayakovskaya and Trubnaya metro stations. The fare is the same as for the Troika card.
• You can also use Apple Pay and Samsung Pay.

Rules, spoken and unspoken

No smoking, no drinking, no filming, no littering. Photography is allowed, although it used to be banned.

Stand to the right on the escalator. Break this rule and you risk the wrath of the legendary escalator attendants. (No shenanigans on the escalators in general.)

Get out of the way. Find an empty corner to hide in when you get off a train and need to stare at your phone. Watch out getting out of the train in general; when your train doors open, people tend to appear from nowhere or from behind ornate marble columns, walking full-speed.

Always offer your seat to elderly ladies (what are you, a monster?).

An Easy Tour

This is no Metro Marathon ( 199 stations in 20 hours ). It’s an easy tour, taking in most—though not all—of the notable stations, the bulk of it going clockwise along the Circle line, with a couple of short detours. These stations are within minutes of one another, and the whole tour should take about 1-2 hours.

Start at Mayakovskaya Metro station , at the corner of Tverskaya and Garden Ring,  Triumfalnaya Square, Moskva, Russia, 125047.

1. Mayakovskaya.  Named for Russian Futurist Movement poet Vladimir Mayakovsky and an attempt to bring to life the future he imagined in his poems. (The Futurist Movement, natch, was all about a rejecting the past and celebrating all things speed, industry, modern machines, youth, modernity.) The result: an Art Deco masterpiece that won the National Grand Prix for architecture at the New York World’s Fair in 1939. It’s all smooth, rounded shine and light, and gentle arches supported by columns of dark pink marble and stainless aircraft steel. Each of its 34 ceiling niches has a mosaic. During World War II, the station was used as an air-raid shelter and, at one point, a bunker for Stalin. He gave a subdued but rousing speech here in Nov. 6, 1941 as the Nazis bombed the city above.

Take the 3/Green line one station to:

2. Belorusskaya. Opened in 1952, named after the connected Belarussky Rail Terminal, which runs trains between Moscow and Belarus. This is a light marble affair with a white, cake-like ceiling, lined with Belorussian patterns and 12 Florentine ceiling mosaics depicting life in Belarussia when it was built.

Transfer onto the 1/Brown line. Then, one stop (clockwise) t o:

3. Novoslobodskaya.  This station was designed around the stained-glass panels, which were made in Latvia, because Alexey Dushkin, the Soviet starchitect who dreamed it up (and also designed Mayakovskaya station) couldn’t find the glass and craft locally. The stained glass is the same used for Riga’s Cathedral, and the panels feature plants, flowers, members of the Soviet intelligentsia (musician, artist, architect) and geometric shapes.

Go two stops east on the 1/Circle line to:

4. Komsomolskaya. Named after the Komsomol, or the Young Communist League, this might just be peak Stalin Metro style. Underneath the hub for three regional railways, it was intended to be a grand gateway to Moscow and is today its busiest station. It has chandeliers; a yellow ceiling with Baroque embellishments; and in the main hall, a colossal red star overlaid on golden, shimmering tiles. Designer Alexey Shchusev designed it as an homage to the speech Stalin gave at Red Square on Nov. 7, 1941, in which he invoked Russia’s illustrious military leaders as a pep talk to Soviet soldiers through the first catastrophic year of the war.   The station’s eight large mosaics are of the leaders referenced in the speech, such as Alexander Nevsky, a 13th-century prince and military commander who bested German and Swedish invading armies.

One more stop clockwise to Kurskaya station,  and change onto the 3/Blue  line, and go one stop to:

5. Baumanskaya.   Opened in 1944. Named for the Bolshevik Revolutionary Nikolai Bauman , whose monument and namesake district are aboveground here. Though he seemed like a nasty piece of work (he apparently once publicly mocked a woman he had impregnated, who later hung herself), he became a Revolutionary martyr when he was killed in 1905 in a skirmish with a monarchist, who hit him on the head with part of a steel pipe. The station is in Art Deco style with atmospherically dim lighting, and a series of bronze sculptures of soldiers and homefront heroes during the War. At one end, there is a large mosaic portrait of Lenin.

Stay on that train direction one more east to:

6. Elektrozavodskaya. As you may have guessed from the name, this station is the Metro’s tribute to all thing electrical, built in 1944 and named after a nearby lightbulb factory. It has marble bas-relief sculptures of important figures in electrical engineering, and others illustrating the Soviet Union’s war-time struggles at home. The ceiling’s recurring rows of circular lamps give the station’s main tunnel a comforting glow, and a pleasing visual effect.

Double back two stops to Kurskaya station , and change back to the 1/Circle line. Sit tight for six stations to:

7. Kiyevskaya. This was the last station on the Circle line to be built, in 1954, completed under Nikita Khrushchev’ s guidance, as a tribute to his homeland, Ukraine. Its three large station halls feature images celebrating Ukraine’s contributions to the Soviet Union and Russo-Ukrainian unity, depicting musicians, textile-working, soldiers, farmers. (One hall has frescoes, one mosaics, and the third murals.) Shortly after it was completed, Khrushchev condemned the architectural excesses and unnecessary luxury of the Stalin era, which ushered in an epoch of more austere Metro stations. According to the legend at least, he timed the policy in part to ensure no Metro station built after could outshine Kiyevskaya.

Change to the 3/Blue line and go one stop west.

8. Park Pobedy. This is the deepest station on the Metro, with one of the world’s longest escalators, at 413 feet. If you stand still, the escalator ride to the surface takes about three minutes .) Opened in 2003 at Victory Park, the station celebrates two of Russia’s great military victories. Each end has a mural by Georgian artist Zurab Tsereteli, who also designed the “ Good Defeats Evil ” statue at the UN headquarters in New York. One mural depicts the Russian generals’ victory over the French in 1812 and the other, the German surrender of 1945. The latter is particularly striking; equal parts dramatic, triumphant, and gruesome. To the side, Red Army soldiers trample Nazi flags, and if you look closely there’s some blood spatter among the detail. Still, the biggest impressions here are the marble shine of the chessboard floor pattern and the pleasingly geometric effect if you view from one end to the other.

Keep going one more stop west to:

9. Slavyansky Bulvar.  One of the Metro’s youngest stations, it opened in 2008. With far higher ceilings than many other stations—which tend to have covered central tunnels on the platforms—it has an “open-air” feel (or as close to it as you can get, one hundred feet under). It’s an homage to French architect Hector Guimard, he of the Art Nouveau entrances for the Paris M é tro, and that’s precisely what this looks like: A Moscow homage to the Paris M é tro, with an additional forest theme. A Cyrillic twist on Guimard’s Metro-style lettering over the benches, furnished with t rees and branch motifs, including creeping vines as towering lamp-posts.

Stay on the 3/Blue line and double back four stations to:

10. Arbatskaya. Its first iteration, Arbatskaya-Smolenskaya station, was damaged by German bombs in 1941. It was rebuilt in 1953, and designed to double as a bomb shelter in the event of nuclear war, although unusually for stations built in the post-war phase, this one doesn’t have a war theme. It may also be one of the system’s most elegant: Baroque, but toned down a little, with red marble floors and white ceilings with gilded bronze c handeliers.

Jump back on the 3/Blue line  in the same direction and take it one more stop:

11. Ploshchad Revolyutsii (Revolution Square). Opened in 1938, and serving Red Square and the Kremlin . Its renowned central hall has marble columns flanked by 76 bronze statues of Soviet heroes: soldiers, students, farmers, athletes, writers, parents. Some of these statues’ appendages have a yellow sheen from decades of Moscow’s commuters rubbing them for good luck. Among the most popular for a superstitious walk-by rub: the snout of a frontier guard’s dog, a soldier’s gun (where the touch of millions of human hands have tapered the gun barrel into a fine, pointy blade), a baby’s foot, and a woman’s knee. (A brass rooster also sports the telltale gold sheen, though I am told that rubbing the rooster is thought to bring bad luck. )

Now take the escalator up, and get some fresh air.
