Am I able to disable exhaust emission light on vw polo?

Have light constantly on . Engine checked and fine. Advised software problem and too expensive to update. Have to put up with light on all times otherwise. Any advise? Can it be disabled?Am I able to disable exhaust emission light on vw polo?If you take the bulb out, then you will get a bulb failure light. If you replace the bulb with a resistor of the same value or paint the bulb (typpex ought to work) then all that you will see is that the light does not come on in the prestart diagnoistics.Am I able to disable exhaust emission light on vw polo?Get it scanned. It is on for a reason. And the code will show up. If the code does NOT show up, go to another shop who knows their booootaaaack from their elbow. It will be there.



If you just disable it using the ODBII scan tool, it will come back in about 2 or 3 days. And it won't pass the emission because (1) the light is on (2) you just reset it.





Good Luck...



P.S. If your emission is not running clean, you are also possibly burning too much fuel.
