Im having my crank angle sensor changed at the moment when I noticed that when i shift into drive or sports mode the D letter does not illuminate on the dash, I have no idea what this means. Anyone have any idea? Everything else comes up, P, R, N.

Could be something as simple as the bulb.....

Agree with dstocks. Had a similar prob in the Magna I had. The "D" didnt light up on the dash. Was the bulb. Makes sense considering D is the one that is on most too...

Checking the bulb is easy. Pulling the dash out is just a matter of 2 screws and a few plugs on the surround. Then 4 screws on the cluster and it just pulls out. The bulbs are just held in little black twist in holders. Thats one thing I have to hand to Mitsubishi, every one I have owned has been easy to get the dash out :D

I'm pretty sure the D goes out when you shift to tiptronic too.
