DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC)
Your vehicle test connector is known as
the Assembly Line Data Link (ALDL) con-

Your vehicle's instrument panel has a Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)

is an indicator to warn the vehicle operator of a problem in the com-
puter control system.
If your instrument panel indicator lights do not come on when
you turn on the ignition, please refer to your vehicle's service
manual. You may have problems in the vehicle's circuitry.
