    You might have cracked the vacuum line, or knocked one the plug wires loose.

    What year is the vehicle?

    If it is pre-96, you might not get a SES light from the wire being loose, and the older the car, the more likely it is that you could have cracked the vacuum line that goes to the PCV valve.
