I left the ignition on over night by mmm mistake, and now the check engine light doesn't come on. I think I burned out the bulbs, but I wanna know if anything else besides me could be the blame. The fuse is ok also..

With the ignition OFF disconnect the ECM.
Using a fused jumper (1 amp is good) ground pin A5 of the connector (not the ECM).
Now, turn the key to the RUN position.
Does the Service Engine Soon light come on now?

Well, I am not sure or more like I don't have a clue where the ECM is, or pin A5 is. If there is a way to tell me, please let me know.

The ECM located above the “passenger” footwell.
