Hesitation after Rust Repair

Just want to confirm something. My GF had her frame fixed, to weld I'm assuming they disconnected the battery and the computer lost its Maps. Is this a correct assumption?

 

She says her pathy now hesitates at soft acceleration off idle. I noticed it too and even stalled it once(slowing down from 50kph and accelerating softetly )

 

took it on a 250km run yesterday it runs fine just off idle it seems to hesitate and near stall.

 

It was running fine before.

If they didn't unhook the battery before welding it could have sent some voltage back through the ground.

And that would of.... Broken.... What exactly? I know the clock was reset and the radio stations as well so I'm pretty sure the battery was disconnected.

check to make sure they didn't fry a wire down below or knock one loose

Nothing near the patch area. I changed the fuel filter yesterday and didn't notice anythingaround the battery. That's where I'm not sure where to start looking since the truck runs fine just a little more hesitant then usual.

 

I remember my cavalier was the same when the battery was unplugged for more the 1 minute as it would loose the fuel/spark maps in the ECU and have to reprogram itself (by driving around for a while)
