Get the code for the cel and see what pops up. Usually when it blinks you should stop driving it

Check youre coil pack and spark plug on whichever one is misfiring. Either bad plug or corroded coil

Make sure you're battery positive and negative are tighten firmly. I had the same problem with the battery flashing and turned out it wasn't making contact

I doubt that would cause it, maybe it could be a vaccum leak.
