Answer
Hi Luis,

could be unrelated to your soda spill.  Stomping on brakes is never good but Check Engine Light (CEL) has more to do with the engine management system than brakes.

Depending on where you live, you should go to a local auto parts store (like Advance auto in the US) and ask them to read the OBD or OBDII code(s) thare were triggered for the CEL.  They will help reveal the general area of trouble.

With these codes it will be alot easier to find the problem and take the corrective action.

NB: the other option is to visit a LR mechanic.
