DESCRIPTION
If the NGS screen displays "DATA LINK ERROR", check for:
- Loose link adapter/power cable connections;
- Incorrect vehicle and engine selection;
- Tightness of NGS data link connector terminal;
- Tightness of X-13 connector terminal (you'll find this terminal under the plastic carpet protector just below the left side of the radio)
- Tightness of PCME connector(s) terminal(PCME is under the radio)
If "DATA LINK ERROR" still appears after you cycle the ignition key, check whether the NGS tester is operating properly by installing it on a known good vehicle (same model). If the "DATA LINK ERROR" appears on this vehicle, the NGS tester could be defective.
