Get rid of it..then take the Wire that goes from the Gauge Cluster and splice that in with the MIL Wire. That way if there is a reason for the MIL to come on, both of them will light up..otherwise it will be off.

Mine comes on every time I start the car when it's cold. If I turn the car of, then crank it up again, it'll go away. Replaced the switch in the oil pan as well, didn't help. So I just said screw it and took the bulb out of the cluster.
