How do i reset the "engine" light? Not the "service" light, but the "engine" light?
I've tried unplugging the battery cables, and removing the fuses no luck.

When the "Engine " light comes on, it means an error has been detected in the engine management system and you need to retrieve the trouble codes to find out which circuit is causing the problem and rectify it before the light would go off.
