Blinking is not good

Stop using it before you hurt the engine

Have a repair shop check for codes,diagnose & resolve

When a check light blinks,sometimes it is an indication of
a cylinder misfire so severe, it could damge the exhaust
converter, & may even go into fail safe, to protect it & you
won't be able to drive it

Just one possible reason for the light blinking

Each manufacturer has different strategies

2011 fusion wrench light

Sometimes the service light puts the car into "limp mode" hence the poor performance. Might need a trip to a mechanic to diagnose the cause because intermittent faults are very hard to find.

How do you reset the service wrench light and blinking oil change miles?

With the car turned off, press the odometer button, and keep it down, then move the ignition switch to the 2 position (just short of turning the car on, not the radio position). After 15-20 sec approx, the service reminder light will go off, and you can let go of the odometer button. Keep me posted.

Have a 2003 Saturn LW2 wagon- 1st problem lights inside and outside of car started blinking on & off- then just opening car door lights blinked on & off- now blinking stop-but car will crank over-...

That thing about the lights flashing, think about it. that happens only when you lock or unlock the car with remote to set and off-set the security system. Makes sense that your security system is in lock-out mode so nothing works, right?. Disable or reset your security system and you'll be fine.

"wrench" light came on and accelerator stop working in traffic

crunk it up ,that's good english . Cranked it up How many miles on the vehicle ! The wrench light is a warning light for the transmission or the electronic throttle control .All new vehicle's have electronic throttle control , there are position sensor's in the APP an in the throttle body an they ware out . It's your responsibility to keep it maintained . Not just to jiffy lube !To the Dealer to have diagnostic's run on the electronics. Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor vs. Throttle Position Sensor

Display reads oil at 15%

You will have to reset the maintance light. Turn the key in the on position.( Not the crank position ) Push the trip meter button until you see the mileage reading. Now turn key off and with left hand hold in trip button. While holding in the button with left hand turn key to on position until you see dash lights. Hold button in until light starts to blink then after 4 blinks release button for 4 blinks then hold in again until light resets. If it doesn't work try trip A instead of mileage reading.

One possibility is that the light in not firmly seated in its socket inside the stereo. If you find that the blinking is worse when driving over bumpy surfaces this will help confirm that the issue is related to an intermittent electrical connection.
