Default The dreaded CEL....

Is there any way to just disconnect the damned light? I know it's on for my O2 sensors, there's gotta be a wire or some way to shut it off.

You dont want to do that, just replace the o2 sensors, if you disconnect the light you will not know if somthing else goes bad.

you can get mil eliminators to turn off the light or you can get a handheld tuner and just turn off that sensor.
