If you can not see anything funky with the wiring, you may just have to cough up the $200 and have the shop diagnose it.

What started all of this? Why did you try to read the codes? What was hooked up to it?

I did the head gaskets and pulled the starter to rebuild it.

I called another shop, They said for 90 bucks they will tell me why obd2 inst working.

Maybe Okdisco or Spike can correct me if I am wrong but I have been told that testbook is the actual name of the dealer software. I don't want to steer you wrong but that is what they call it around here.

You are correct. Testbook is dealer proprietary. Autologic, Rovacom, and T4 are all aftermarket versions

To the OP, when you did the head gaskets, if you moved the tps or IACV, it will need to be reset. Something may have been shorted to the ECU, although not common to happen. I would take the other ECU with you and let them take a look. Where are you and what shop are you taking it to? We have 2 great shops I would trust with a diagnosis of this kind, but there are some losers out there.

I am going to take it to a shop and have them diag the OBD. I feel like if I could get that working I would be in the right direction.
