Started today. I need someone from mitsu, or from previous experience, to please tell me what to do to fix this problem.

I am thinking resetting the ECU will fix it, but I am asking before I go mucking around.

The deal is, everytime now I turn the car on, the cruise light is on. I thought well maybe I left the cruise on, just not ON on. I push in the button, light goes off. Turn the car back on, cruise is on, so I turn it off.

The next time I said to myself, if it's on, I am going to actually push the control arm down, and see if the cruise grabs. It did, so it's actually ON on, not just the light. I unscrewed the gas cover, thinking I had it on to tight, still cruise light comes on when I restart car.

So, this is where you all come in. 16k+ miles on her, PERFECT condition, full tank of gas etc etc. 2003 galant (can't remember the type, it's the higher end type....es maybe???)

Thanks!

Don't everyone rush at once. lol
It has not done it since. I remember getting shocked getting in and out of the car that day, so this must have been why it did it. All is well again.

mighty, NoRtHeRnCaLiStYLe, have you guys found out what's wrong with the cruise control light? I got the same problem now.

Never had that happen to me before..but from what you are describing it sounds like maybe the switch. I would PM Manybrews on this issue..since he is a Mitsu tech. I don't see how the gas cover would have any relation to the cruise control. Usually you'll throw a "Check engine" light if the gas cap is loose because there is a lack of vaccume.
