My check engine light stays on. Each time I put it on the machine no codes come up. I drive and at times it's like my 2003 ford focus zts is a strobe light with the head lights, radio lights, and control panel lights flickering. My car will then make a "vroom" sound, jump, and attempt to die. All while I am driving.
I've taken it to a repair shop numerous times and get told different things each time, pay a fortune, leave, and it keeps doing the same thing.
The power window on the drivers side went out so I had it replaced as well as mu plugs and plug wires. While there, the repair person said my emissions system needed replaced.
Could this be the reason why it is doing this? Or could it be another issue?
PLEASE HELP.

Have battery checked for condition including load test. Auto parts do for free. Clean battery terminal ends and if belt hasn't been replaced replace belt and tensioner. Recommended every 60k start there
