Default cel problem

so i get a cel after a few minutes of driving, i went to autozone cause they check it for free and the machine said linking error. ok, so i go down the street to jiffy lube cause i used to work there and i know they also have an obd2 scanner, so i borrowed it and i got the same result. what could be the problem?

how many times did you try it?..i get the same thing sometimes, but i just turn the key off and let it sit a second, then do it again

for some reason its gotta take a min to read before you try to get it to link

I would just check the cel the old fashion way. count the blinks and refer to the table. theres a how to top sticky of this forum that explains how to do it.

can't do the blinky on 99-00 civic si! unless you've swapped it to obd I, really don't think it works 96 n up either.
