VEHICLES COVERED

This section covers Chrysler fuel injected vehicles from 1983-1995.

INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATOR LIGHTS

Your vehicle’s instrument panel has either a “Power Loss”, “Check
Engine” or “Malfunction Indicator Lamp”, depending on the year of the
vehicle. These lights are designed to warn you of component malfunc-
tions.

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 car’s circuitry. It is rec-
ommended that you fix these problems before retrieving
DTC’s from your vehicle’s computer.

DATA LINK CONNECTOR (DLC)

Chrysler vehicles are equipped with spe-
cial test connectors that make it possible to
connect specialized testing equipment that
communicates with the vehicle’s on-board
computer. Chrysler’s vehicle test connec-
tors are usually dark in color (BLACK or
GREY) and are located under the hood.
