A flashing ETC (Electronic Throttle Control) light usually indicates a serious throttle system issue that could cause reduced power or limp mode. I would service the throttle bore and then run the codes and clear them once the service is done.

This guide will show you how to run the codes and then clear them. Here is how to do the service for your car.
