I love this. I hate cutting wires on any car so that it is reversible is great.
I have used a similar "fuse replacement" method on a headlight reminder chime. Where the wires break out from the fuse in the OEM position, I used wipes of Silicone sealant on each wire and that worked fine. I don't like insulating tape much. Some heat shrink applied to the wire ends might also work if the fuse is cut away neatly enough.
If you are getting the warning lights coming on it is probably setting fault codes. It is of little long term consequence other than to potentially confuse a service tech. if they check the codes as part of a vehicle service.
While the lights are on, the vehicle functions indicated may be disabled, it just depends on how the faults are dealt with in the computers.
It is possible to remove the wire terminal from a connector in a reversible way and sub in a wire from a wreck (wire terminals are pretty standardized.) that may be an alternative if you can't find a fuse that doesn't do more than kill the engine.
