Default CEL after changing clutch and flywheel

I had a shop do my clutch/flywheel and they called me telling me it is throwing a check engine light now. It wasn't when it went in, what CEL could it be throwing from changing the clutch/fly? Thanks

Hmmm,

The only thing that I can think of is they must've accidently broke a sensor on the engine while pulling the tranny or a connector came off on one of the sensors.

I'm hoping they just forgot to connect something, be a easy fix for them and I will get the car back today. And if they broke a sensor they better be paying to replace it.

The VSS sensor is probably disconnected or damaged.

Don't get too happy and gun it when you first get it.

Make sure you break it in for the first 500 miles
