THE BLINKING MEANS THERE IS A MULTIPLE CYLINDER MISFIRE CAUSING CONVERTER DAMAGE. NOT SURE KNOWING WHAT MOTOR YOU HAVE IF ITS THE 4.2 THERE IS A CAM SENSOR ON THE PASS SIDE FRONT OF THE HEAD THAT GM HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH. FIND A PLACE THAT WILL PULL THE DTC CODE FOR YOU. VERIFY ITS A MISFIRE AND/OR CAM SENSOR CODE, IF IT IS REPLACE THE CAM SENSOR. YOU HAVE TO REPOSITION THE POWER STEERING PUMP TO REMOVE AND INSTALL THE SENSOR

SOURCE: check engine light is on, motor runs rough, sometimes stalls

Go to Advance or Auto Zone and have them run an obd scan on it and it will pin point why your light is on and could solve your problem. This is often done for free.

SOURCE: 2002 chevy monte carlo won't start

this vehicle is equipped with a factory anti theft system if when you try to start the engine and the anti theft light is on then the starter won't start even if your check engine light is not on you would have to scan the body module to pin point the problem to see if it's the anti theft system or the starter, go to a auto parts store like auto zone or pep boys or western auto these store offer free scanning to there customers. if this information has been helpful please let use know good luck
