a code is being stored in the ECM due to a fault detected. Take it to a parts store to see if they can pull the code. They wont charge you for doing this. If there is no code could be faulty ECM
My car started doing this a week after I bought it. We started with the easy stuff like tightening the gas cap and changing the gas cap. If my mechanic cannot pull the code how is a parts store supposed to. I live in Canada so they might charge me. I have no other problems with the car.

if the check engine light comes on it is storing a code . If a scanner can't retrieve the code could be the ecm itself as no connection is possible between the scanner and the ecm. A qualified shop can find the problem without the stored code with other equipment if need be An ECM can malfunction, short out in areas of importance and even send false signals .
