malfunction indicator(mil)...thinkin the maf

So I just did a sid short ram...cause oreiley's doesn't have any straight tube/piping in. Anyways, I unplugged the battery before I started being I'd be taking out the maf. So I did everything, 5/8"s hole for the maf grommet which fit perfect and the mafs cable(s) aren't tight or anything, just liek it was with oem airbox/chamber. Got it all installed, looks perty sexy :P hooke dup the battery, and yea, mil dash light comes on. I'll go to oreiley's or advanced tomorrow cause I think they hook up scanners fo free...if not I think checker does, but yea. Before I do, any ideas how I could resolve this by tomorrow? Could the air be...to hot so it's kickin a mean code? If I can't figure it out I'll just put on the oem intake and take it to our honda dealer I guess

so I talked to a friend of mine and he said the light usually kicks on when you do something like a new intake/unplug the maf or of the like and it has to re adjust itself or somethin'. Iono, if it's not gone by tomorrow, I'll go to advanced...well, I'll go there regardless tomorrow.
