There is a problem with the emissions system. You will need to have the computer scanned with a OBD2 scanner to determine where to start looking. Start by making sure all the required maintenance items have been performed, per the owners manual.
The check engine light comes on and stays on when a problem is detected by the self diagnosis system of your vehicle. Generally, a check engine light is lit when there is a problem in the emissions or somthing that is affecting the effectiveness of the emissions.
If the check engine line is flashing then that means there is a real problem and you should have it looked at, But if the light is on and NOT flashing the it is most likely a problem with the emmisions system and most likely an oxygen sensor.
Check Engine ... self explanatory ... check the engine. Check fluids, air filter, water in the coolant system, oxygen sensor, bad spark plugs, electrical problems, loose nut behind the steering wheel - could be any number of things ... check everything in the engine area.
I think you are assuming that to reset the check engine light you can just disconnect the battery. Disconnecting the battery on a 2004 OBD2 compliant vehicle will not reset the check engine light. It must be reset with an OBD2 scan tool. This would work on OBD1 vehicle but not on OBD2 vehicles. So the radio issue is mute. Have the problem that set the check engine light repaired and then reset the light with the tool. Reset the light without correcting the problem and the light will just come back on.
It's probably an electrical problem. It could be the radiator or the alternator. Check the filter caps.
Trouble code P0420 means:Catalyst system efficiency below threshold
I clear the check engine light with a Scangauge II. But most ODB-II devices can read and clear the code.
check the fuel pump sceen in the tank . I already experienced this problem .
The check engine light (service engine soon) comes on and stays on when a problem is detected by the self diagnosis system of your vehicle.
Check engine is an error. You have to go at a garage to see what is the error code, then correct the problem.
No, only a problem that effects emissions will set the check engine light.
Have vehicle scanned to determine the problem
Fix the problem causing them to be on.

If the check engine light is flashing a misfire has been detected

Have vehicle scanned to determine the problem and have codes cleared
