when i first finished installing everything i did not have the iat sensor shoved into my rubber intake tube, i shut the car off noticing the light was on and shoved the sensor into the rubber tube, could that have been the reason the CEL went on and i just have to go through some engine cycles until it goes off, like the post made at 6:05 explains?
Yes, it could but we won't really know unless we have the code. You could, of course, just erase the codes by pulling fuse 4 and 11 in the fuse box next to the battery(and the Check Engine Light will go off, for now) and hope that was the reason but as the service is free from the autoparts store, just have them scan it.
