Problem overview

Some Mitsubishi Outlander owners report experiencing intermittent starting issues even after installing a new battery. These problems may stem from a faulty starter, which can prevent the engine from cranking properly. Additionally, alternator issues might lead to insufficient power supply to the battery, further complicating starting attempts. Corrosion on battery terminals is another common culprit, disrupting the flow of electricity necessary for starting the vehicle. Some owners also find that a dead key fob battery can hinder the vehicle's ability to recognize the key signal, resulting in starting difficulties. Furthermore, faulty wiring can contribute to these intermittent starting problems and other electrical issues. It is crucial for owners to have these components inspected by a qualified mechanic to effectively diagnose and resolve the starting issues, ensuring reliable performance.
