Default SES Light after Overlay install??

Yup as the title states, My SES light came on after I just installed my Guage Overlays. Started the car up after I hooked everything back up and all looked normal, thank god. But then after Idling for about a min. or so my SES light popped on. Its constant and not flashing. I unhooked the battery to maybe clear out any codes or whatever but had no luck. I did remove my lid and clean out my air filter and I noticed the SLP MAF had some stuff on the screen in front that made it past my airfilter so I say wiped it out, but it all looked normal. Anyone with any help? Oh and MODS feel free to move this is this isnt right section.

There really is no reason why your SES light should come on unless you didn't plug the cluster in all the way, but then again at that point, I wouldn't think the cluster would have the power to throw an SES light.

Take it to autozone and have them tell you what it is.

Thats what I thought it was at first but the cluster is on there good and tight. I checked and re-checked just to make sure. Autozone is my last resort but oh well.

Do all of your needles move? Are any pinned under your bezel?

yes all of them move. I was aware of all the possible problems with these but wasnt expecting the SES light. Could it be that I just need to hit the "oil-reset" ??
