This is illegal, and you also will not pass a safety inspection if your area requires one.


more places dont have emmisions than do.


Emissions and safety inspections are two different things. Some places have both, some have on or the other, and some have neither. Emissions is just that, how much emissions come out of the exhaust. A safety inspection is making sure all the dash lights work, brake pads have life, tires have life, E-brak works, etc.

If you sell the car without disclosing the check engine light "doesn't work", you're in trouble.
