Hey I was in my 2003 Jeep Wrangler on my way home from work last night, when I had to stop suddenly because of an idiot on the road, anyways, after my hard brake, my check engine light came on any idea as to why?

Strategy for a check engine light is ALWAYS the same. Pull the codes.
Anything less is pure guesswork and is really of no value.
Post the EXACT code here for comment (not just a description).

Well when I pull codes, I just go to O'Rielys auto parts store, then have code runners and will tell u what area you have a problem in, and from there u gotta figure it out
