Welcome to the forum!

Try disconnecting your negative battery cable, and leaving the doors open. This will drain all remaning power and reset your ECU. If the check engine light stays off well then most liekly it was the cas cap, if it comes back on however take it to Autozone or another automotive place with free check engine light help.

They will get the codes, then come back here, post them, and we can offer more assistance
