Hopefully it is running and starting now. So the next step is take it to Autozone, Checker Auto or what ever local auto parts store and have them read the codes and ask them to clear the check engine light. Once you have done that drive it a little while and see if the light comes back on. If it does then go back and have it read again. Post the new codes here and we can advise you better.
A low or weak battery or badly corroded terminals will give false DTC's and trip the check engine light.
