it's a trick to get the CEL code, I also saw this:
Start with the ignition off. Within five seconds, switch the key on,
off, on, off, on. (On is not start!)
The "check engine" light will flash. Count the flashes Each code is a
two digit code, so a (for example) 23 would be FLASH FLASH <pause> FLASH
FLASH FLASH <loong pause>
It will never flash more than 9 times, watch for pauses!
55 is end of codes, 33 is normal if you dont have air conditioning.
When the computer indicates major failure, it will activate Limp In
mode, which substitutes guesses for data to compensate for sensor
failure.

it seems it is for old mitsu, 95 and lower, all the 96+ use something called OBDII and you need a little interface between the plug and your PC, and a little software to analyze the code, some are freeware, take a look at www.batauto.com
