2014-2021 Mitsubishi Outlander 2.4L I4
Description
The 48V BSG system is unable to provide electric torque assist during acceleration events. The vehicle operates without hybrid boost.
Symptoms
- No electric assist during acceleration
- Slightly reduced off-the-line performance
- Increased fuel consumption
- Turbo lag more noticeable (if turbocharged)
- 48V system indicator may illuminate
Common Causes
- 48V battery SOC too low for assist
- BSG torque output limited by temperature
- 48V system in degraded mode
- Drive belt condition preventing torque transfer
- Control software limiting assist
Diagnostic Steps
- Check 48V battery SOC level
- Monitor BSG temperature
- Read 48V system inhibit reasons
- Inspect drive belt condition
- Review recent 48V system fault codes
Repair Notes
Resolve underlying 48V system issue. Charge 48V battery. Replace drive belt if worn. Address thermal issues.
