    Check the condition of the battery and both ends of both ot the battery cables.
    If you are still having problems, we'll need to know more about your car: year, make, model, engine, and mileage.

    A red blinking light on the dash is probably the check engine light. The car has a computer that will store codes if something is working properly. There are scan tools at repair shops and even small ones you can buy cheaply at autozone or advanced auto that will allow you to read these codes, and go from there to fix your car.
