ABOUT THE CANOBD2&1 SCAN TOOL
The CanOBD2&1 Scan Tool is a device that connects to your vehicle's
Data Link Connector to retrieve any Diagnostic Trouble Codes that are
stored in the vehicle's on-board computer.
DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC)
Your vehicle test connector is known as
the Assembly Line Data Link (ALDL) con-
nector, Assembly Line Communication
Link (ALCL) Connector or the Data Link
Connector (DLC). The GM DLC connec-
tor contains 12 pins and is usually black in color. On most GM vehicles,
the connector is found under the left side of the dashboard.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT (MIL)
Your vehicle's instrument panel has a Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
also called the "Check Engine" or "Service Engine soon" light. The 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.
