CEL, SES, engine icon.

Am I the only one who grabs a scanner to check for trouble codes
As soon as a yellow warning indicator light shows up in the gauge pod?

I drives me crazy to drive around with a CEL on.

I get obsessed trying to make repairs to clear the codes.

Am I the only one?

I feel like the code terminator.
