Transmission Control System

Data Link Connector (DLC):

DESCRIPTION
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) is an electronic device which monitors inputs to control various transaxle functions including shift quality and transaxle diagnostics. The PCM receives input information from sensors, switches, and components to process for use within its' control program. Based on this input information, the PCM controls various transaxle output functions and devices. The PCM is mounted forward of right front wheel housing, behind the front fascia cavity splash shield.

DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC)
The Data Link Connector (DLC) is a multiple cavity connector. The DLC provides the means to access serial data from the PCM to aid in Powertrain diagnosis. The DLC allows the technician to use a Scan Tool to monitor various systems and display Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC). The DLC connector is located within the driver's compartment, directly below the steering column.
