Inspection & Verification

  1. Verify customer's original problem by operating system in question. Inspect vehicle for any obvious electrical component wiring or connector damage. Inspect connectors for loose, damaged or corroded terminals. Check related fuses for system in question.
  2. Inspect 16-pin Data Link Connector (DLC) pins for damage. See Fig 1. The DLC is located below driver's side of instrument panel, to the right of steering column. If pins are okay, perform data link diagnostic procedure. See DATA LINK DIAGNOSTIC TEST. If pins are damaged, repair as necessary and retest system for normal operation.
