Yes, the codes can still be retrieved and read by an OBDII scanner, even if the bulb is missing from the Check Engine Light. Don't understand why you would want to pull the bulb out unless you are trying to "fake" out of passing an emmissions or similar test on your vehicle. The Check Engine Light plays a very important part in warning of potential problems - I wouldn't pull the bulb out.

As with any check engine light in an OBDII Vehicle (1996 and newer), use an OBDII scanner to FIRST read your codes and find out why it was on in the first place, then SECOND erase the code using the erase command on the scanner. If you don't fix the problem that caused the light to come on in the first place, it will always return.
