They all have 1 thing in common, they need constant power to operate continously. So I would first check your battery's state of charge, your alternator's output and the condition/connection of your battery cables and ground wires.
You're getting the check engine light because the engine's components are not getting the power it needs to operate properly.
You're getting partial power so there's no break in the wire harness but something is in the way

Check the wire that goes into cylinder no. 2's ignition coil pack and make sure that it is properly plugged in.
Facing the engine, should be the left most black plug sticking out the top of engine, but also check the middle one in the rear of the engine just in case I numbered the cylinders wrong.
