Default engine light stuck on

I have a 91 mustang 5.0 the problem is the engine light is stuck on,I can't seem to get any codes from it,I did both the koeo and the koer test with the code reader on it and nothing,just curious if any one else has came across this problem.

considering that,It would be nice to keep it for diagnostics,but the engine runs fine,it seems the dash is screwed up,the tack screws up a bit sometimes too.

could be a loose ground. If the car seems to run fine (doesn't miss, etc) then I wouldn't worry about it.

Did you try disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it? Might force the computer to reset itself.

Bad EGR will also leave a CEL on as well.

I would disconnect the battery for a minute or two and which should knock out the light.
