Icon2 SACRAMENTO: Failed BAR ref! Need help

Just took my car to try to get it ref'd and failed.... Visual and smog passed but the tech said I was missing the DLC (Data Link Connector). I thought that's what the jumper plug was for??? Where can I find the DLC or how do I hook it up?

Have a 90 ef hatch with a 94 b18c1 with stock p72 ecu. Everything is pretty much stock. Got rywire harness if that matters?

The rywire conversion harness left a brown/white wire hanging to check codes just by grounding it. So I cut my stock blue 2 pin jumper connector that was already on the car stock. So I took the blue 2 pin jumper connector and connected 1 wire to the ground and the other wire connected to the brown/white wire from the rywire conversion harness.

Question: Was I not supposed to cut the stock 2 pin jumper connector? Was that datalink connector? lol

Somebody help me out please!

That's what I thought?! I told him that but he kept saying there is... Probably try a different ref station next time. Thanks for the reply

Yea that's where I went... Do you know if the ARC station does smog there too? Or they just do the visual?
