Went to the local Auto Zone to have my CEL checked. It said "NO LINK" on the reader.. Any clue what that means?

Most likely the diag tool used will not communicate with the CRD. Many scan tools do not function well with the diesel version. You may have to try another auto shop to get a tool that works. Good Luck, hopefully the code is not a major problem.

When I use the zone to check my cel they use the lil orange scanner and it usually takes about 2 mins to link up. Make sure ur key is clicked clockwise two clicks to scan. Not one click counterclockwise.

My key was in the right position and yes they used the lil orange one. He tried twice to get it to work.
