OBD Connector Port

The DLC ( Data Link Connector or Diagnostic Link Connector) is the standardized 16-Cavity Connector, it is where diagnostic code readers/scanners interface with the vehicle's on-board computer.

​The DLC is usually located 12 inches from the CENTRE/EXIT 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 the 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 or check our " CHECK YOUR CAR OBD CONNECTOR LINK"

Locate the Data Link Connector (DLC) in your vehicle. This is a somewhat triangular shaped 16-pin connector that is commonly located underneath the left hand side of the dash near the steering column. If you have trouble locating the DLC, search for the location on the internet using your car’s model and year, or refer to the owner’s manual.
