To read a code

How come my truck will not ever throw a code ?
In fact it never seems to store even one
One time took the ECM to Cummings in Renton, and they could not get a code out.
Needless to say the switch 3 time trick will not do it either.
How come ?
Is it because the water seems to spin the opposite direction S. of the Equator ?
Hmm because when I quit banging my head against the wall it feels better ?

The "switch 3 time trick" doesn`t work on 98.5-99 trucks. I think they started it in `00.
