SES light a No Show!

Friends,
I purchased my 95 GL used in early 1998 with 50,000 on it from my local Ford dealer. The previous 1 owner purchased it new from the same dealer and had major work done on the engine due to coolant in the engine and, after much harrassing from himself, Ford Motors agreed to rebuild the engine.
My point is from 50,000 to the current 174,000 miles I have never had an SES light. I'm not complaining but I am wondering.....
Does this sound normal?:grinno:

Could be normal or good or bad.
First thing to check does the service eng light or check engine light come on when key is first turned on before starting engine?
If not the bulb is not wotking or a wiring or pcm problem.

Consider yourself lucky if you haven't ever gotten a light. Like the previous post maybe you have a burned out bulb from the previous owner ignoring the burned out bulb. Myself I have had that annoying light on periodically since I have had this vehicle. The dumb Ford garage I dealt with could never troubleshoot this problem correctly. The problem always keep coming back and I just ignored the light after taking it back to them multiple times and spending a ton of our company's money on it since it was not covered under warranty any longer. Finally after I bought the vehicle from our company I finally decided one night after it glowing at me in the dark I dove into why it keep coming on. Seems there was a vacuum line pinched in the back part of the firewall which was setting the code. It was the same line that the Ford garage played around with a while back. The dummies never routed the line correctly to get rid of the problem. They should have replaced it and rerouted it after all the time and money spent on the problem. It hasn't come back since. I can thank Autozone for reading the code for me. Needless to say I will not use that Ford garage anymore. I use a different one.
