I bought a used cluster from a scrapped GT and as soon as I connected the right plug(if gauges are facing you), the check engine lit up.
Is it possible that the car I got it from, had the light come on and it somehow stayed on the cluster? On my original cluster there is no problem. Is it normal that the light is on without the key being in the ignition at all? I was afraid to start the car with it, with the hopes that the ECU will clear it.

The light should be lighting up with the key on but the engine not running, so I'm thinking the bulb was burned out in the old cluster.
