WHy would you want to disable it ??? It is their to tell you the vehicle
needs to be checked. A non working CEL will instantly fail a vehicle
inspection

CEL turns on for a reason. Something is busted, sensor or something. That
means you will fail the smog check. Or you can remove the bulb. Then the
CEL won't work, and you'll fail the smog test anyways.

Why don't you find out what code the computer is giving to cause the CEL and
fix the problem?
