Before you do any checking of codes or disconnecting the battery, get off your seat, go out to your car, pop open the gas door and check to see if your gas cap is completely tight. Vehicles with OBDII diagnostic capabilities ('96+ mustangs) monitor Evaporative System Pressure/Vacuum and control it. If you cap is loose it well put on the check engine light. Since you just filled up, then the light came on, that to me is the most likely answer. Even having the cap a little bit loose with cause a System leak.
Keep us posted.
