Default C5 Corvette CEL Not Working

Hey guys, I'm a kid who owns c5 2002 base model and I bought with some mods on. I had CEL on for 8 months of my owning period due to one of the cooling fan relays are broken and keep blowing my fuse. Today I start the car and It didn't light on. Once I got to my destination I tried to put the ignition off and on and it didn't light up, like there is no bulb at all. Did someone experienced it?

Yes that bulb can burn out. I replaced mine three weeks ago when I noticed I had stored codes and no CEL illuminated.

Could be a bulb or the light circuit between the PCM and the bulb.
