If your CEL came on, it's better if you take it to Autozone and find out what the problem is than just pulling the bulb off. In NC, the emissions inspection requires the tester to plug into the engine computer to see if the CEL came on. If the computer found a code, you will not pass inspection.
If you take it to Autozone, they'll find out what the problem is and will erase the code for ya. Just fix the problem and your CEL won't come on again.
