Default DLC1 data link connector

I'd like to get the ABS codes by blinking the ABS light.
Does anyone know where the DLC1 connector is on a 2002 RX300?
(I have the ABS troubleshooting guide, it says to look in the repair manual for the location. I can't find a reference to the location in the on-line manual.):

Thanks for the super fast reply!
There is nothing in that location on mine. Just the engine compartment fuse/termination panel.

I'd love to see a picture of this area in yours.

I'm not sure if I'm right here, but I definitely don't have this in my 99.

Okay.
Did some digging around and here's what I found.
Since yours is a 2002, you need to jump it from DLC3 connector located in the lower left side panel.

Hope this helps.

Nad1370, mine is a 2002 as well exactly as your picture above shows. I'm a little confused as to which pin is AB and which is TC.
I need to reset the airbag light as well.
Thanks in advance.

Has anyone who have done this can point me to the procedure, materials, and location of the DLC connector you used? I need to reset the light, it is slowly blinking and the car won't pass inspection.
Thanks!

Do you have check engine light blinking? If so you could go to AutoZone they will find the codes free for you.

I have the same connector picture in the second picture by the strut tower, but the connector is more towards the front of the vehicle. Like right in front of the radiator...

We're talking about the airbag light here, not CEL. I don't have any codes related to CEL, just my airbag light is slowly blinking...
