What does it mean if the check engine light of a 2002 Ford Focus is still on after having the oil changed?

[Edit]

Answer

Go to auto zone and have the codes read for free.

Answer

Autozone is NOT the answer.

Pull the codes from the computer, match the code to the troubleshooting procedure, follow the procedure to find the source. Repair the source, light will go out if that was the only problem. There are "monitors" or self tests the computer runs the car through a drive cycle, if a problem occurs, it may not run all of the self tests until that problem is taken care. Therefore, another problem may exist. It is emission related. OR hook up a scanner that is capable of clearing codes, and hope that none are still active.

Answer

Mine was a oxygen sensor
