Code Reader Location:..

98 Coupe, Auto, Stock.

looking for the car's plug in adapter that is for a code reader. Most cars are located on the drivers side and is visible by just looking under dash. I have looked on the driver's and see no adapter to plug into.

Thanks for the Help.

Its called the ALDL PORT (Assembly Line Diagnostic Link Port) and it is located in the close out panel under the steering column. Look straight up!

Do you know that you have a built in code reader??

Do you have the procedure for bringing up the diagnostic codes on the DIC? The DIC should show your codes, with either an H (history) or C (current) behind the code. While viewing a given code, press and hold the reset button until it beeps. That should clear it.
