You've knocked something off the engine. Go make sure everything is plugged in properly.

Check all your plugs and vac hoses. Is it idling ok?

And no, you dont need to rev it. It will learn the changes (if any) quick enough.

do an error check bud. if engine light is on it should have stored an error code in your ecu, that should narrow the problem down a bit :thumbsup:

Dont disconnect it,this will clear any set codes and you wont know what has caused the engine light to come on then,just follow the steps in this link to check the codes.

Once the codes have been flashed up and youve written them down or whatever,then you can disconnect the negative battery terminal which will then clear any set or old codes logged in the ECU.
