Hi everyone, I have a 2000 xj 4.0 and aw4/np242 and just replaced engine in it and am hoping to get it through emissions soon, but the check engine light is on. When I take it to auto parts store the don't get any readings. Is there a fuse that could be blown? How can I get it to send the codes to the scanner? Thanks

Try a different store/code reader. Not all are created equal.
Ok, autozone and orielly's both wouldn't read. I'll try somewhere else. When I hooked the oreilly scanner to it and started it, the tack wouldn't work and it idled really rough. Also the check engine light went away until I unplugged it.
Is that normal?

Is there a separate connector under the hood?

I had a grounded out CPS sensor cause scanners to not be able to connect.... Can yours connect, but doesnt show codes, or does it fail to connect?
