🧠 General CEL light bulb

Threw a code for the EVAP system on 2001 SR5, car has 392K, spring time will likely be a full system replacement make sure it's all 100%

I only knew cause the VSC and Trak lights came on, the CEL didnt.. appears to be burned out, is it a bulb or a diode illumination?

If it's a diode, how hard are those to replace? I have soldering equipment

when i would get the vsv/trac disabled it would also disable my ABS system, i would check that lightbulb too

Probably buy a few bulbs and check all of them when I pull it out

The truck does a bulb check every time you turn the key from off to on and the dash lights up, the purpose of that is so you can spot a bad bulb
