When my check engine light came on due to the gas cap my boi from toyota told me to unlug the negative wire from the battery for 10 - 15 minutes and the light came off. Make sure that you open the gas cap and tighten it back up till it clicks a couple of times before you unplug the battery (only the negative wire)-The gas cap is the one you take off when you pump your gas
