Well i just dropped an engine in my car yesterday and finally got it to turn over today. Anyway I drove good for like 4 hrs and then i was driving the car and it suddenly just turns off. The check engine light comes on and my car will not start up. To make a long story short i started hiting the starter and started up again and i drove it home. On the way home the CEL was on the whole time and the rpms where going all over the place but the car was reving any different. I get no codes when the car is off. The check engine light only comes on when i start the car.

you need to jump the plug with a wire down by your ecu for the light to flash

there is a green plug on the passenger side next to the ecu that has 2 holes you have to jump it (make a u out off a paper clip and have it in both holes) then you can run the aux and the code will blink.

thanks for the help. It blinks twice slowly and then has a break and blinks 5 more times. they are all the same speed except for the last blink on the 5 spread. It ends really quick compared to the rest.I looked up the code and didnt see anything. Im not really sure how to read it but i thought it was 25.
