Drop in to an Autozone, or Pep Boys, or similar big parts store & they will usually scan for codes free. This will hopefully eliminate all the guess work, or at least point everyone in right direction for better diagnosis. If not obvious from codes what the problem is, get back to us and we'll help you out.
Testimonial: "Thanks for the great suggestion . I'll have Autozone read the codes on Monday. Thanks again!"

It might be a malfunction of the switch combination unit as according to your description it could be one of the internal contacts staying on all the times and this is why you have to cut the power off to cancel it. Best solution is to bring it to your local dealership or a very good electrician.
Hope it works for you and let us know what is the outcome.
Cheers.

the car should be OBD 2 compliant. therefore run a scan on it to find out exactly wot the problem is

could be transmission fault, connect the 2 loose black plugs together under the drivers side dash, turn on ignition, no start, the ecl will flash the code, slow flashes are 10's and fast ones are 1's. codes can be got from bba-reman.com

Hi
Have the EGR valve checked on the car, also you can remove this yourself and try cleaning it with carb cleaner. they cost about £180 or $280 approx. they do normally trigger these lights.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Dan
p.s have the air mass sensor checked also.
