3 HOW TO DIAGNOSE
3.1 CONNECT VCI CONNECTOR
Procedure to connect VCI connector:
1. Locate vehicle’s DLC socket. The DLC (Data Link Connector or Diagnostic Link
Connector) is the standardized 16-pin connector where diagnostic code readers
interface with the vehicle's on-board computer. The DLC is usually located 12 inches
from the center of the instrument panel (dash), under or around the driver’s side for
most vehicles. If Data Link Connector is not located under dashboard, a label should
be there telling location. For some Asian and European vehicles, the DLC is located
behind the ashtray and the ashtray must be removed to access the connector. If the
DLC cannot be found, refer to the vehicle’s service manual for the location.
2. Plug the diagnostic connector into the vehicle’s DLC socket (It is suggested to use
the OBD 2 extension cable to connect VCI connector and DLC socket.). For non-16PIN
DLC socket, please select the corresponding non-16 pin connector adapter, then plug
the non-16pin end of the adapter into the DLC socket, and then connect the standard
16pinend VCI connector.
