I suggest to save your self some money, Stop by your local Autozone or Advanced Auto Parts and they will check it for you for free rather than paying a shop for the same thing. The check engine light comes on for different issues your car could have from a bad spark plug wire to belive it or not taking your gas cap off while the car is running can cause the light to come on.

If you would like to contact me back with what the code is I will be happy to try and help you.

If you turn you ignition switch 3 times on and off(w/o turning the car on) the check engine light should start flashing. First it will flash so many times. Ex) 3 flashes, write down three. Then it will pause and then start flashing again. Ex) 4 flashes, write down four. Then there will be one final flash, JUST ONE. That means it is done. Now, if you wrote down 3 and 4 then your code is 34.
Each code has each separate error or faulty part in your car.

My 2003 Pontiac Grand Am GT has a flashing and sometimes a Solid SES light and runs rough

Usually with the newer vehicles when it starts to run rough or idle poorly it's time for a tune up, that will also make the check engine light come on on some vehicles, it needing an oil change can also cause the light

2000 grand am bogs engine light flashes stays on for awhile then goes off

The flashing light is indicating an "over fueling" condition that can cause damage to the catalytic converter.
A defective or stuck injector is typically the root cause.
Take the vehicle to your local Auto Zone and ask to have the trouble codes read. Write the codes down and respond back to me, we can get started on fixing the issue.
