      I believe the flashing hold light has you in a reduced power mode to protect the engine/transmission.
      You need to get the OBD code so you will have an idea of where the fault is.
      It could be something as simple as corroded plugs or dirty air intake, but you’ll need the code to have any idea where to start diagnosing!

      Cheers

      Thanks JB_FRASER.The hold and cel is not constantly on.On a couple of occasions made appointments to have the car scan but the lights were normal.Will post the codes as soon as I can get thru the scan.
