Might need a tow to somewhere that can pull your code (Autozone, for example). Without knowing that ----- it could be anything (well, ALMOST - I guess a flat tire could be ruled out as the cause )

Even though the check engine light when jumped ,stays lite there would still be a code in the ecm that can be read with a code reader?

Yeah. The ECM stores some number of previous codes (I don't know how many) not just the current one.

Re: Check Engine Light On & Wont Start

You can determine the code by installing the jumper in the service connector located under the dash to the right of the glove box. It is a 2 pin connector that when jumpered turns the engine check light into a code light. Read the codes and look in the book. A long on light is a 10 and short light on is 0-9.
