FAQQuestions about the Eclipse manual
Which Eclipse years does this manual cover?

Is this the OEM Mitsubishi Eclipse manual or an aftermarket guide?
The OEM version. It carries the procedures, specifications, torque values and wiring diagrams Mitsubishi published for the Eclipse, organized by system — not a condensed aftermarket summary.

Yes. Full wiring diagrams are part of every Eclipse manual, alongside repair procedures, specifications and diagnostic information.
Does the manual cover Eclipse recalls?
45 recalls are on federal record across the 1990–2012 Eclipse, listed by year below. The manual carries the manufacturer's diagnostic and repair procedures behind the systems involved; the recall repairs themselves are performed free by Mitsubishi dealers.
Why do some Eclipse years cost more?
Every Eclipse year is $29.99.
