Ensure the 20-pin cap is on and go for the test. At least, that's how it should work.

If the emission testing station is trying to connect via the 16-pin when the 20-pin cap is off (open) it will fail.
when i went in for the test the emission computer would not communicate with the car and the 20 pin cap was closed not open so i got a fail and i went to another place and i got the same thing.. but i just seen that picture u posted and my cap does not have that jumper i see that u have is that what i need?
