Default '96 Disco with Check Engine...

Just had a quick question about sensors on my discovery. Is is possible for a sensor to be loose enough that when you are traveling at faster then need be speeds that the vibrations of the truck could ... possibly make the sensor light "check engine light" come on? ....

Hope you understood what I was meaning...

Here is how the adventure with my check engine light began...
Went to the beach and on the way home got into a major rain storm
we got off the interstate to get something to eat and wait fo the rain to let up.
However, the town....was flooding....lol and in the parking lot which we were parked the manhole started to overflow and shoot water into the air...GREAT huh? Well being the idiot I am I attempted to back out of the parking lot and ended up in a lot of water and on top of the manhole cover, which was still shooting water...

Needless to say on the way home the check engine light came on.
It went off about a week later....then recently back on again and then off and on...you see where I am going with this.

The roads at home are somewhat rocky and I was wondering if maybe they could be jarring a sensor of something and perhaps that is whats making the light come on...

Or I am complete idiot and there could be something majorly wrong with my disco.

Sorry for the long post ... hopefully someone out there has some words of wisdom for me.

Thanks in advance
