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. Generally, the problem is in the emissions or something that is affecting the effectiveness of the emissions, but other causes can trigger the light to come on, too. To determine the cause, the vehicle will need to be taken to AutoZone or a shop that has an OBD2 scanner, or for 1995 and earlier models, an OBD1 scanner, While a scanner will not give you the magic answer, it will give you a code that narrows down the problem area.

Why is check engine light blinking and it smells like gas when the car Car hesitates check engine light stays steady or blinks?
I assume you have a 96 and up vehicle. If the light is blinking and then eventually it will stay on, it's always been a misfire code for me. Take your car to an autozone or advance auto parts and they will read the code for you. It will usually be plugs, wires, or a coil, depending on your car. Hope this helps.
