No Start - CEL - Scanner will not connect
Any help would be appreciated very much...
Headed up in the mountains, lost third gear, few miles later engine quit altogether. Check Engine Light was on, cranked over fine but no fire. OBD scanner would not connect (tried 2 different ones). Seems like 3 dings followed by pause then 2 dings when key is turned to "on". All fuses where ok.

Again, would this make the OBD port unavailable? The glow plugs where changed not long ago as were the harnesses. I will check them but shouldn't I be able to check the codes? Just trying to figure out why I cant get a scanner connected.

Good point... the obd port powers the scanner's but it wont connect. Both of the scanners I tried have been used successfully on this truck in the past.
