O2 sensor problem most likely. You need to get the diagnostic code read to know for sure.

Possibly, but before spending any money get the code read to verify the cause, and check the connections to the O2 sensors. Also, you could try resetting the ECU and see if it comes back on. Some Autozone parts stores will read the diagnostics for free.
