How to turn off check engine light on 2004 Toyota Tundra?

SAM · 04 Aug 2010, 10:10 pm

I have a 2004 Toyota Tundra light that came on I think around 100,000 miles. I already got it checked out and what I need is a new Oxygen sensor. It costs like $150 and my problem is that my registration is expired and they won't let me register my car until I get it smogged and they won't smog it until I make the engine light go off. I will get it fixed soon but is there any way to make the check engine light go off without getting a new O2 sensor?

You can reset the light but if you didn't fix the problem its going to come back on.

1. unwire the battery and leave it unwired for about 5 minutes, then wired it back and check.

OR

2. Go to a auto shop and ask if you can get it to reset.

3. GO to auto zones and they might be able to delete it.

my car has the same problem but when ever i have to get it inspected i get the computer erased. hope this helps

If you want to turn off your engine light, you can try the following:

1. Turn your key to the "On" notch, and press your trip odometer knob until "Trip A" is displayed.

2. Turn your key to the "Off" notch. Press and hold the trip odometer knob. While holding the knob, turn the key back to the "On" notch.

3 Wait for the system to reset. Continue holding the trip odometer knob while the "----" symbol flashes on the odometer.

4. Release the trip odometer knob when "Trip A" is displayed again. Turn your ignition off, and then turn it back on. The "Maintenance Required" light will be reset.
