It means you have an engine miss. Have the vehicle scanned. Autozone will do this for free.

According to the 2006 Ford Fusion Quick Reference Guide, "the Check Engine light illuminates briefly when the ignition is turned on. If it remains on or is blinking after the engine is started, the On Board Diagnostics
System (OBD-II) has detected a malfunction. Drive in a moderate fashion and have your vehicle serviced immediately by an authorized dealer."

If you JUST changed the oil, it is possible that whoever changed it could have caused this to happen.

Review the quick reference guide (link below) and make sure it is the check engine light that is blinking. Be careful and good luck.

My 2006 ford fusion shakes or misfires around the speeds of 20 40 and 60 mph. I got all 6 coils changed the fuel injected cleaned and transmission oil changed. My engine light come on when it shakes...

I'm sorry to hear that. Did he tell you what codes were in it? Do you live near a autozone or somewhere they can check the codes for free. Or maybe you can call the person up and ask what codes are in the car. But it sounds like you are having a miss fire problem. If the check engine light is flashing it is not a good idea to drive it. Try to get the codes and post them please.

I just had my oil changed 2 weeks ago, its been cold the last two day and my oil level light has come on. I check the level and it is good?

The oil light is telling you the engine oil pressure is below 10 psi which could damage the engine.
It can be low because of low oil in the crankcase, or various other reasons.
You would need to have the oil pressure checked with a mechanical gauge to verify the light should be coming on.

I have a 2006 fusion 3.0, I have a ticking noise so I had it scan at a Ford carage and the tell me that one cylinder is working, that I may need to replace the engine in the very near future,, what is

I would get a second opinion from a private garage. It sounds like Ford is just trying to sell you a new engine. Back in 2006 the torque converter in my minivan went out. Brenner Dodge wanted $2500 to rebuild the transmission. I took it to a local transmission shop, and it was just the torque converter.

Throttle does not work-wrench light on

Certain emissions parts are covered 8 yr / 80,000 miles (e.g. PCM, ECU, & TCM). I've also read of bad gas caps leading to problems. Have you changed gas caps or added a locking cap that's not Ford approved for this fuel system?
