Default I just installed a AFE CAI..

And my check engine light is now on... If any of you can take a look at these pictures if you see anything wrong with my work. Should I just wait it out to see if the light goes out? Or is there something I need to do?

It looks ok from what I see did you reconnect the MAF? Did it have an extra hole to be plugged like the MAC ones do.

Yes the MAF sensor was reconnected. But the check engine light is still on.

you got good connection to MAF? double check to make sure.all clamps sealed tight to prevent vacuum if that may cause trouble code?

I personally do not, but my schools shop does. But, no school for a while.

Fixed it. I just disconnected the batery, loosened everything and tightened them taking my time and making sure everything was perfect. I then put the MAF in checking all of the wires and electrical tape making sure it was tight. Then I connected the batery and took the car for a 20 or so minute test drive. The light hasn't been on since and I hope it stays that way. Thx all for your help
