disconnect the battery, turn the key to ON, turn if OFF, connect it again. if your CD player spits out the CD, you know you did it right.

all in 10 seconds.

If reseting you ecu doesnt seem to help just remove you cluster and remove the bulb. Only do this if you know exactly what the check engine light is from. This is truely a ghetto fix.

diagnose the problem reported, fix it.. then reset the ECU...

For the lazy out there... if youre just concerned with turning off the light, you an always yank the dash and pull the bulb.
