Did you re-set the oil change reminder?

^^ That^^

Is it the oil can and wrench light that's flashing? Reset the OLM.

If it's the Check Engine Light flashing, don't drive it until you know what the code is.

Yes I did reset the OLM . It flash so fast a couple , I had to turn the ignition after I stop and it could only be the engine light. It's intermittent and is very quick. I will see if it does it again on the way home. The o ly other thing I did do yesterday was fill up gas after the oil change

And I did check for codes. None present

Make sure your gas cap is tight.

Sometimes you need to drive it for it to set a code

Funny I thought that same thing today...flashing so fast I couldn't see it. It ended up being the tail gate was shut enough to not trip the sensor unless there was enough vibration to turn the rear gate ajar light on.
