Check Engine Light

My check engine light is on for my 1997 VW Jetta GLS. I have replaced the vacuum tubes, both oxygen sensors.....the new mechanic I brought it to told me the problem is the air flow sensor. I am looking to replace it someday...I really want to just get the light OFF. How can I disconnect the check engine light...or take the bulb out? Please let me know.
Thanks!

You cannot take the bulb out.. the only thing you can do is disconnect the pos batt cable for 2-10min and it will reset.. depending on the problem the light may stay out for 1 min to several days!!
