If the Check Engine Light is flashing in your 2007 Mazda CX7, it indicates a possible misfire in one of the engine cylinders. This could be due to a faulty ignition coil, failing spark plug, electrical problem like a short circuit, or a computer issue. Another potential culprit could be a timing problem, such as a damaged timing gear. When the light is flashing, the car will enter limp mode, shutting down non-essential components and reducing speed to protect the engine. It is important to drive the car to a repair shop right away for inspection to determine the specific cause of the misfires.
