Hey guys I have a 96 b2300 2wd that needs to pass emissions by January. The test center said they cannot get a reading from the truck. I have never reset codes/unplugged battery. The mechanic suggested a new thermostat is very common for this type of truck and issue. I have been looking at other posts and say that the cigarette lighter fuse is linked to the obd however my fuse is fine and in tact. However the cigarette lighter is pushed into the dash since I've owned the truck and do not know if it works. The mechanic quoted me $110 to diagnose and tell what's wrong. Or he said for $125 he will do the thermostat. Do you guys think the thermostat is a viable option to try first or are there more cheaper / logical approaches? I can attach a picture of the test results later today if that will help.
