my check engine light stays on and the o/d light blinks....what could this mean?
On a 1997 to 2001 Mercury Mountaineer : Check the Vehicle Emissions Control Information ( VECI ) decal located in the front of your engine compartment . It shows what type of spark plug to use and the spark plug gap
check the trans fluid.
With a scan tool, or try turning key on, off, on, off, on and counting the blinks of the check engine light. blink, blink, blink, pause, blink would be 31.
The check engine light is just to the left of your battery voltage gauge in your gauge cluster . When you turn your ignition key to the run position , just before starting your engine , the check engine light should come on momentarily to check the bulb
