Default SES light after oil change

I am not sure if I put this here or not but move it if it is please.

I changed my oil today no problems what so ever. Well I was driving to work and about 5 min later my Service engine soon light came on. The previeous owner said I might have to get some rubbing alcohol on a q tip and rub it on the mass airflow sensor cause it gets dirty, I just thought it was weird because it happend right after I did my oil change.

Thanks

Any unmetered air can throw a (MAF) code, like if the oil dipstick isn't fully seated, oil fill cap not sealing, etc. Highly unlikely though since you change it yourself, may be just a coincidence. See what the code is.
