Missing Check Engine Light Bulb

[87e30]

So I noticed I didn't know where the check engine light is. Dumb, I know. I took apart the cluster and found it... but I also noticed that the bulb should feed in from outside the cluster. (just like the ABS bulb)

I can't find a bulb in the dash behind the cluster anywhere. Where the heck is the check engine light wire?

Sorry for stupid question...

This should be really easy, right guys? I just don't have another e30 to look at and compare.

if your car is a euro model, the CEL is not required in europe for emissions. i am right now in the same process as you.

this is what your looking for:

i just need to know what and where to plug it into...

It connects to the DME, one end of it and the other to ground.

Hmmm. Why the hell does my car just NOT have a light. It could be burried back underneath of more wire, but it's certainly not near the dashboard area.

It has diving board bumpers... so it must have coem with a light.
