Look at the flashes very carefully. Some flashes will be long and some will be short. Count them. ___ long flashes and ___ short ones.

Then Google it. You should be able to find the fault codes and what they mean. It just might be a simple problem of not clearing the code after your plugs and oil change job.

Two blinks indicates the MAP sensor. I think just about everyone forgets to plug that thing in when they put the airbox back on.

Finally got it. When I pulled up the airbox to replace plugs this super small hose that connects to the map sensor fell out of sight. I found it and got it put back on. Issue resolved. Thanks for the help guys. Hope I can return the favor some day.
