Oh, that's not the problem... the received wisdom here is that you then have to wait for like 20 minutes to make sure all capacitors have discharged or whatever. Which, again, is not the end of the world - but if you have to try multiple things to get the **** light to go off, and wait another 20 minutes every time, and another... it soon gets really annoying!
