The cause could be any number of things. The first step is to pull the
trouble codes from the computer through the diagnostic connector under the
drive's side of the dashboard. With the ignition off, short terminals TE1
and E1 with a wire or paper clip, turn the ignition to the on position
without starting the engine, and count the flashes. You will see the check
engine light flash a number of times, followed by a pause, then more
flashes. As the code cycles, you will see a longer pause and the pattern
repeat until all of the codes have been displayed. Post the codes here for
more information.
