What is the exact code? You can google it and usually find out exactly what the issue is.

Did you replace the throttle body recently? Could be that you didn't reset the adaptations.

If you haven't replaced your throttle body recently I would clean the connections with some electrical contact cleaner.

Also, if the fault message hasn't come back after you cleared it there likely isn't an active problem.
