(And... we dont have Emissions Checks here )

Not that simple I am afraid. It is a data signal sent from the TCU to the ECU. It caries dependent upon conditions. So it would need to say the right things at the right time. The only real way to keep the CEL from comming up is if the ECU was re-flashed to rid it of the need for the signal.
