Location Of The Data Link Connector (Dlc) - Sealey VS8621 Instructions Manual

2. Location of the Data Link Connector (DLC)

The DLC (Data Link Connector or Diagnostic Link Connector) is the
standardized 16-cavity connector where the service tool interfaces
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.
