Check engine related to oil change LEDs?

[Severian]

Hey all, I attempted to reset the Oil Change LEDs numerous times using the ad-hoc method of connecting pins 7 and 19 with a wire/paper clip. Didn't work. Don't know why but it's fine, I can track mileage instead of using the (really nifty) lights until I bother to buy that special tool.

In the meantime the LEDs have progressed into the Yellow range with "Oil Service" showing when you start the car, then the lights go out as normal. But this morning the "Check Engine" light came on. Before I take it in, could this check engine light be due to the fact that the car thinks we didn't heed the Oil Service notice?

I'll probably have to take it in regardless, huh? Because I can't have the check engine light on all of the time...bummer...
