RWAL Test Connector Location ?

Anyone know where the RWAL Test connector is located in our rides? I'll assume it's under the dash somewhere.

I'd like to see if I can generate codes to see what's going on with the dodge lights being on for RWAL. Page 4 has you ground it out, but it doesn't tell you where on the truck it's located.

Thanks.

It is a single wire taped to the harness to the left of the RWAL control box.

Black square connector taped near,the main harness in front of the glove box,mount bar.


I'm getting a code #9.

Speed sensor wiring resistance (usually high)



Broken, bare wire? It rubbed through one of the sensor wires


Very easy to test. Pull the ground wire off the glove box light base, and briefly touch the tab inside the connector. The amber lamp will then flash, if you have a code.

Thanks!

Codes are gone. Now all I have to do is test drive it.

Amazing, what a broken wire can do, eh?
