Check all engine grounds ,make shure all are connected, remove batt cables for 30 seconds to reset codes on computer ,rehook cables and crank engine, check to see if check engine light comes on again, if so check all pigtails in wireing harness for bad connections, or broken wires, the use of an ohms meter is great for testing broken wires, if unsucessful take to autozone have obd connector scanned for free, replace part called for, start over by resetting codes,
It is the check engine light.
A check engine light in any vehicle is a warning that there is an issue with the motor. In a specific vehicle, as in a Ford Contour, it is best to check the manual or with a mechanic to identify the issue.
Because you need to check something in the engine.
Spark plug miss, fuel injector problem, burnt valve, or vacuum leak but the check engine light should be on if this is the case. Also possible broken motor mount if the check engine light is not on.
you have a cylinder misfire

it reads if your motor is knocking. say bad rod bearings or loose valves. it will kick your check engine light on if it reads knock from the motor.
There is oil in the fourth cylinder spark plug hole. You need to replace the spark plugs, wires and the valve cover gasket. My 1998 had the same problem. The Wires are expensive because you have to buy the coil pack with it. But this will solve your issue.
Either buy a reset switch from a motor factor or get your local dealership to clear it.
That is the check engine light.
i would check if you have power to the motor from the switch
I am having a problem right now with my check engine light too. I don't know why your motor shuts down, but in the book it states that when your check engine light comes on, you are having a problem with your emission control. For you, it might be a sensor is shutting down your engine. I know last month Mister Transmission was having a free check out your engine special, so you might want to call there to see if they can put your car on a diagnotic. Good luck
