More problems..........handy!

Got the car back yesterday and the engine management light was on. I thought this was wierd. Took it for a spin and the vtec doesn't kick in!!

Is this just a sensor that needs pushing back in/replacing etc?

check the oil as if its low it stops the vtec kicking in.
if not might be worth disconnecting the battery might reset the ecu
