welcome to DF... use the key on-off-on-off-on method to get the codes out of the comp... they are displayed on the odometer

ok i've tried the on-off-on-off-on thing and cant get it to to anything. I read that with durangos that you hold in the trip button and turn ign on. Tried that also it said chec in odometer box but that was it.

Maybe cat was clogged? Do you have an autozone around you? They check codes for free.
