That's how I avoid the check engine light on all of my vehicles (black tape). Is that racist?Yep, remove the black tape and all will be well!!!
If I have an actual problem, the vehicle won't run good. That light is just like my gas gauge light, I ignore it until I can't. Then I push to the nearest gas station. 
p.s. I bought a V8 Cadillac years ago that read my current MPG in "Real Time". It depressed me.......TAPE!

It was a moment of joy to drive this old heap again after 4 months of tearing out the old frame and putting in a new one and a transmission rebuild which I had never done before. Everything works perfectly. Last couple of pics from this project.
This is what the old frame looked like after I got it out from under the tub.
New frame and a few shots of the tub

Finished cleaning up PO’s wiring hack job nightmare of a mess. Also put in a new X2 battery. Sheesh these things come with a hefty price tag.
Lol my wooden block lift?? Times are tough man, I wish I had a real lift in this shop, I ache like crazy rolling around on the floor!Nice work.
p.s. Is that lift adjustable?
Put the ghetto transfer case drop on today. It’s amazing what 3/4”-1” of drop can do for a smoother ride.
Got my new steering installed after snapping a tie rod end on my currectlync trying to do an alignment…
Yeah I was shocked! Tried penetrating oil and heat, wouldn’t give, pipe wrench and a cheater bar and it just snapped

I usually am head butting rocks.
Hopefully the new one holds up a lot better than the old, I know I’ll be head butting rocks with it…
Tummy tuck with ucf lo-pro tranny mount.
Less PO hackery...now I want to find a chase module...or build my own... couldn't find three wire high low pin lights...this will do for now...was tempted to get the welder out, fill the original hole and redrill...settled on a couple of fender washers painted and drilled out...
Removed old soft top in preparation for new top. Also cleaned gaskets and door surrounds. Now I need some hardware for the soft top frame and the webbing support.
I had to do the same thing, but I had the three wire LED's from Poison Spyder. I cut all the wires exactly how they described in the instructions. The technician and I worked for three hours over the phone to get it to work but no such luck. In the end I drilled a new hole and bought two more lights and wired (according to my state motor vehicle laws) a dedicated turn signal and a dedicated side marker.

These arrive today almost ready for my sound deadening install…. Added a new air filter too.
It's always fun getting new tools. Good luck with the install.
