In a Toyota Tacoma, you can temporarily reset the "Check Engine" light by disconnecting the negative battery terminal and pushing the brake pedal to clear the computer's memory. After a few cycles, the light will likely turn back on unless the underlying issue is fixed. Various reasons could trigger the light, such as a loose gas cap, faulty oxygen sensor, bad spark plugs, a faulty mass air flow sensor, or a mix of these and other problems. To pinpoint the exact issue, a diagnostic scanner must be connected to the OBD port beneath the dashboard.

To get rid of the check engine light on a Toyota Tacoma, hold down the horn for roughly 30 seconds to discharge the vehicle's capacitor. After that, wait before reconnecting the battery. It's recommended to wait around 15 minutes for the error codes to clear and the engine light to go off.
