Welcome to NPOC,

Try to read the Error Code

It maybe the Timing Chain. I think you will get a Cam or Crank position error
Or could be a Coil Pack. This will normally give a misfire error

Hi Vincent. Welcome to NPOC. Handshake
Your engine light should go out on it's own after the car has been started/stopped a few times., If not you can always reset it. Check the How To section for reset instructions.
Your car will be OK to keep driving. Thumbs Up
Roy

Welcome to NPOC

Your Car will have detected the misfire from the Plug being disconnected and put the Engine Light on.

As Roy says, fine to drive.

It should go out on its own within a few Days, if not
