We've been driving ours like that for 3 years. I'm convinced that it's a scam by FoMoCo to trick you into their repair garages, as nothing we do seems to turn it off, regardless of all maintenance.

Why is your Ford Focus engine light blinking?

You can disconnect the battery for 5 minutes and reset the computer. If there are problems still present, the engine light will come back on after a while. Try this first, then if the check engine light persists, there is a problem detected. And that will need the codes scanned. STOP! If the engine light is blinking it means there is damage being done. A steady light means there is a code you need checked. A flashing engine light is really bad. Pull over and get towed to your mechanic.

Take it to Autozone and have it read the codes if it is OBD2 (1996 and newer) if not to see if the check engine light is related to the speedometer problem disconnect the negative battery cable and hold the brake down for about a minute. This should turn the check engine light off. If it does drive it to see if the speedometer works. If it does they are related somehow, if it still doesn't then it must be two separate problems.

I had this same problem, the check engine light came on as well as the fuel light with ample fuel still in the tank, turned out that the VM value was bad, or vapor managment value, so it doesn't just have to be the engine can also be fuel system problems.AnswerGO TO AUTO PARTS STORE ASK FOR OBD 2 READING ON YOUR CAR. THAT WILL TELL YOU WHAT IS WRONG.
