Answer
Try to get the fault code readout. Turn the ignition key:"on-off-on-off-on and leave on" doing that in 5 seconds or less elapsed time. Then watch the odometer window to see if it changes to show 4-digit codes preceeded by a P. Or watch the check engine light to see if it begins to flash, pause, flash, etc. If so, count the number of flashes before each pause. Then tell me either the numbers or the number of flashes. Tell me which engine you have.
