Default check engine light

At 14k miles check engine light came on on my 02 ZO6. The dealer tells me its an electrical "short" between the two gas tanks and that GM knows about it but has not come up with a solution. He says just live with it untill GM issues a solution. Anybody has this problem is he BSing me?
