Question SES light

I had my coolant flushed today and shortly after my ses light went on. I noticed that the cooling fans went on abnormally early, like around 180*, and at the same time my ses light went on. Any ideas what this could be caused by?

Only way to be positive would be to check the codes with a scanner. Is it possible they knocked the connector on the coolant temp sensor off? It's on the front of the water pump. Or, did they get sloppy with the coolant, and perhaps drench the Opti, or the AIR pump?

Coolant temp sensor is still connected and everything is dry as a bone down there.

Check the fuse for the AIR pump. That is a common problem, and turns on both fans. Could be just coincidence it all happened at once.

Fuse good. I guess I'll have to take it back there.

Light and fans didn't go on, on the way to the dealer, go figure. They couldn't figure out why it happened. Maybe just a fluke thing?
