I cannot pass or fail the emission test cause they cannot get my car to read. All the monitors say unsupported. This car has always passed before. Nothing new has been added. The check engine light is even on, however when I plug in my hand scanner it says there are no codes?

So your scanner communicates but theirs did not? It sounds like you need to go to a different smog shop.
Am I correct or reading it wrong?

Sorry, My scanner turns on but as you can see, everything is unsupported. Check engine light is on, so I assume the ECM is working.

Here is a guide and a wiring diagram so we can do some simple testing:
