Sounds like a misfire, probably due to a vacuum leak. Have you inspected all the vacuum lines? How about the intake air tubing? Was any service performed just prior to the issue starting that may point you in the right area to start your search?

Do you mean "Check Engine Light" is this is your problem make sure you have good gas and gas cap closed properly.

Now you need to disconnect both battery cables and leave it over night. Minimum 12 hours and then clean battery terminals and reconect . This will allow the car computer to reset and then hopefully the problem is gone!
