Can't help. Find local auto zone they will scan for the code for zip. Get back to us with that code then we can give a accurate diagnosis

Retrieve the code and you'll have your answer… (my money says it's an ignition coil gone bad…) but scan it to be sure. AutoZone or O'Reilly's will scan it for no charge.

Flashing check engine light is a major misfire. Do not drive vehicle more than necessary. You are going to have to get a scan tool to check the codes on it. This will tell you which cylinder in misfiring, but it won't necessarily tell you why. Could be a bad coil, a bad plug, a bad connection to the coil… Or many other things.

  • What's causes car to jerk and the check engine light to go on and off? My car was working fine yesterday! It's a 2005 ford explore. I went to turn it on earlier and it started jerking a lot! I let if warm up a bit than the check engine light came on than it went off and on again. It keeps turning on and off! I know I need to change my spark plugs soon! Can it been the spark plugs causing it to jerk and the light to turn on and off?

  • Difference between SERVICE ENGINE SOON and CHECK ENGINE light? Is there any difference? I have a Ford Mustang 2002 and my SERVICE ENGINE SOON light is on. Does it mean something is wrong with my car? Do Mustangs also have a CHECK ENGINE light?
  • Ford focus 1.4 zetec engine hesitates? When driving in a straight line the car drives fine, but when it comes to slowing down to make a left or right turn the car tends to hesitate or judder, as if the fuel pump is loosing pressure or the gas tank is running low. Have replaced the filter and given the car a service. But still same problem.
