Unfortunately, if it is immediate, something has failed completely. You can either continue to replace parts until you find it, or your other options are:
Go to Joes garage (not the dealer) and pay him to retrieve the codes
or
Buy a scanner from your local auto parts, and do it yourself. I have even heard that some auto parts stores are doing it for free, or will just rent you the tool. Having a scan tool for your vehicle is priceless. It will save you many headaches, and costly repairs.

Go to Autozone. Have the nice guy behind the counter pull out his code-checking gizmo. They do this for free and they will tell you exactly what component is failing. If you ask them, they will then give you a price for a replacement part.
