Getting Connected
The Evolution programmer connects to the diagnostic port of your vehicle.
Follow these steps to install the Evolution:
1. Begin by turning your ignition key to the OFF position. Locate the
black diagnostic (OBDII) connector (Figure #1) under the dash near
the steering column. As you sit in your vehicle, it could be located
right above your right knee. Sometimes the cover to this connector will
be labeled “Data Link.” Feed the cable up towards the top of the
dashboard, but do not plug into the OBDII connector yet.

2. With the driver’s side door open, remove the access panel on the left
side of the dashboard (Figure #2) and pull the end of the ODBII cable
outwards (shown in Figure #3). Snake it up to the A-pillar of the
vehicle and replace the access panel. The cable should be protruding
from the dashboard up along the A-pillar and be able to move freely
when pulled.
