2005 Dodge Neon Repair Question
Mileage: No information provided.
2005 Dodge Neon Engine light on and flashes when I accelera
My engine light has been going on and off. It flashes when I push the gas, especially on the expressway. It starts to feel like it goes up and down not knowing what to do when I accelerate. We have changed the spark plugs and the light when off. In Idle sometimes it sputters as well like it wants to shut off. We bought an upstream oxygen sensor but haven't put it in yet. Could it be something else? Thanks

The computer has identified a problem within the engine management system. Go to Autozone and get the OBD2 code/s pulled its a free service and comeback with the code/s this is where we start the diagnosis-without it there's no starting point-
The O2 sensor could be one of them-
Check engine light on and flashing
you need to get the system scanned for codes
you can cycle key on off three time ending with key on
read codes in odometer area
P####
let us know of the codes
check engine light flashing its a sign of misfire check it for tune up and check the coil
Before you waste time and money on parts and sensors you should get the codes
good luck
The code that popped up was P 0303. Thanks
as you see code po303 is a misfire on cylinder # 3
i would start with a tune up
good luck

Did you ever get this fixed and what was the issue. We are having the same problem and are in a pickle due to the face that we are in Germany and have limited resources. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
