2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Front Wheel Drive Automatic 30000 km
My Lancer GTS has no problem whatsoever when I don't turn on my headlights. (Stock headlamps) It is adequately powered and smooth. My problem surfaces whenever I turn on my headlights. At speed around 140km/h, my engine will start to jerk/pullback or misfire whatever you call it without fail. It is worse when it is going uphill. I've tried switching off the air-cond but it makes no difference. The minute I switch off the lights, the car immediately restored its competency and run normal! The problem is not very negligible at speed below 100 km/h with headlights on.
I've sent my car to Mitsubishi and they replaced a new ECU for my car. I just got back my car and it makes no difference. I face the same problem whenever I switch on my headlights. FYI, I've tested my altenator and battery. They're working fine. I'm at wits end. I know it has to be a wiring problem but I need to narrow down the usual suspects.
