Default Help needed!!!

Can anybody try to give me some any suggestions on what might be wrong with my car. I got in it this morning and while it was warming up the check engine light came on and then the trac light starting flashing off and on. I was going to work so I didn't have time to check it, so I just turned it off and jumped it my old beater car and went to work. If anyone has any clue please let me know. I still haven't had time to check it yet, but was wanting to maybe get a few possible reasons to help start me off. Thanks in advance.

The car is a 97' SC 300

i had a simlar problem on my 92 SC400. I went to the dealer and they changed the "rear O2 sensor" and problem went away. Sorry I don't know the part number or if it was the Sub or main O2 sensor but I heard discussed here that they should be changed together....
