engine light Options

[celicaboston1983]

My engine light has been on for two yrs now I believe it was the egr code. And I'm probley not gonna bother fixing it. I was just wondering if there anything I can do to disable the check engine light like pull a fuse or bulb I need my inspection sticket done soon.

yeah, you're right. EVAP and EGR don't share hoses. lol. it kinda confused me because there's a bunch of hoses that all run into one big hose and then that big hose splits into smaller sections and stuff. hard to explain. anyway, I pulled the entire EGR system off, except the VSV, which I couldn't find. I was using the underhood label to follow hoses to find it, but the way it looks, it's so deep in the engine bay I might need to removed the intake manifold to get to it. anyway, so after pulling it all off, not finding anything wrong, and I cleaned the port from the exhaust that goes to the EGR valve using Q-tips. I put it all back together, reset the ECU again, and started driving. well, I was out and about, drove for about 75 miles, stopped and started the car 3-4 times, and drove for over an hour and a half and the CEL never came back on (usually it comes on way before driving that much) I'm not gonna get my hopes up, but I'm saying it may finally be fixed, even though I didn't really do anything really.
