Probably the Crank Position Sensor. Could be a short in the wiring, is there a trouble code triggered in the ECM? If the check engine light stays on after a few seconds of having the key in the "On" position, check the trouble codes by turning the key off and on 3 times it will blink out the code with short flashes then a pause then more short flashes. First set of flashes are the 1st digit, second set is second digit. So two short blinks and then 4 short blinks would be a "Code 24". Google the codes for a list of trouble codes and find out what's wrong. I have seen in some occaisions the crankshaft sensor goes bad. I believe it is locaed t the back of the engine in or near the bell housing Take out the ign module and have it tested.
