I bought the cheapest one sold by Harbor Freight Tools, it works fine and displays all the codes including the hidden transmission codes.Need to get a code reader.
Which one are you guys using?

This is what I was going off of... (and my scanners don’t work)97s are obii, why wouldnt a code reader work? FWIW--the shots above are from my 97.

I've never had a problem reading and clearing codes on my '97 either. I use a VeePeak wifi obd2 scanner with various free iOS apps (I've yet to find one I really like).Hmm. FIrst time Ive heard such a thing. My obii port was able to display a code on an Orielly reader a number of years ago and works daily with my vgate reader.
Never heard of a code reader not working on a '97/98/99 TJ. Though those years display two digit codes in the odometer, a code reader would display them as the later equivalent P0000 4-digit codes.
If it has a 16 pin DLC it’s obd2.Yep, I've heard one or two 97 owners say that they don't have OBD. I also find it interesting that my 97 FSM doesn't use the terms OBD-I or OBD-II at all, but only talks about Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
Maybe it was very early 97s, manufactured in early 96, that don't have OBD? Another quick of the 97s?

I had one of the very first '97 TJs manufactured 3/96 and its onboard code reader worked fine.Yep, I've heard one or two 97 owners say that they don't have OBD.
