so when i took my si to autozone to get the diagnostic doe on it, they couldnt find the plugin so they could check it. isnt it on the passengers side under the glove box? or what? lol cant i do it myself tho?

 

96 - 00 Civic DLC is located right of hood latch or under fuse panel on driver side.

 

correct, right next to the latch, the one next to the passanger is the plug that you jump to have the CEL blink so you can read the code

(some people at autozone do not know what they are doing)

 

really? ok, well is there some way that could have been moved somewhere else? the guy at autozone said that happens lol...iunno. so its by the hood latch, or behind the fuse box?

 

on the driver side, the steering wheel, near the latch that opens the hood, its right near it infront of the fuse box

 

To the right and above the hood release.

 

ok thanks, i found it. now maybe i can figure out whats wrong with it. so umm, how do i figure out the codes its throwing out? i mean when i go look at the plug on the passengers side. well i know what to do becuase of the CEL thread in the 92-00 civic section. but will it be obvious when i do that. when the car starts and it blinks. will i know the code its throwing out. wel i know that if it blinks slowly, it will be a single digit, and if it blinks fast, it will be double digits. im jst asking if that when it does that, will it be so obvious that ishouldl know the number code?

 

Just a note: The diagnostic port on all OBDII cars should be within a foot and a half of the drivers right foot according to the SAE. That does not apply to OBDI cars of course.
