Steering pump change and now check engine light?
Recently changed my power steering pump, belts and hoses. Test drove the car no problem and then the next day my check engine light came on. Any ideas on what this could be before I run codes?

The powersteering pump has a line that's called a ps switch. The ps switch that mounts on top of the strut mount by the firewall.

You really need to find out what the code is. Keeps you from chasing your tail. One other thing that it could be is the crankshaft sensor harness runs behind pump. Might have pinched it.
