We have had all the parts changed that the code says "might" be a problem. Nothing is impacting anything safety related..... NOTHING. No bad emissions. Passed every other requirement but this light issue. Just more BS laws in MA. MA inspection process is just to find work for repair shops. Just like dentists that want you to have xrays all the time when you go in for a cleaning. They just want to find more business opportunities.

I moved from MA to NH and 2 out of my 3 cars that have always passed in MA failed in NH. Any check engine code in MA or NH is an automatic, so can't blame MA on that one. NH is worse when it comes to that.
