Default My light was the O2 sensors

My engine light was the O2 sensors on the exhaust. You might look at those.
If they are going bad, your car will seem more sluggish and kick the light on,
especially after you refuel. I had to replace both last year.

I had the same problem. Cleaned the MAF sensor and 3 days later the CEL was off and has not returned. Good luck!
