Does anyone know if there is a fuse just for the message centre? Or how I can disengage the SES light? It is on and is probably a wiring issue (OBD2 showed nothing) any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Its has to be hooked up to a scan tool. Or if you have Autotap it can also clear engine codes.

Pulling the PCM fuse(for a couple minutes) will reset the light. It's under the rear seat. The light will come back on if the error code re-establishes itself.....

Can I just leave the pcm fuse out so that it will not blink for a while? Also what is the actual name of this fuse?

A small piece of electrical tape over the SES light would cause a lot less hassle I'd think.

Why dont you get the codes pulled and fix the problem instead of masking it?
If a code puller doesn't pull up the code, then you will need a bi-directional scan tool to do the job. Might be a communication issue causing the light to come on.
