Default service engine soon light

haven't driven my 93 C4 LT1 in a couple of weeks. been working on the drivers side window motor. put the door back together last night, and am taking it to someone with experience to change the motor. so when i started to work this morning the service engine soon light came on for a short bit and went back off. car seems to run fine. could this be from me pulling fuses and checking continuities, etc for the window motor? i haven't started it again since coming to work to see if the light comes back on.

Yep, you need to pull the stored code. My 92 would do that on occasion, when I pulled the code it was knock sensor related. The next time I pulled the heads for an upgrade I replaced both sensors and no kock sensor related codes since.
