Check the owners manual or call the dealer service department. The light comes on because it's time for an oil change. However, make sure it is nothing more serious. You could blow the engine if there are other problems. My Honda has a button right over the speedometer that I hold down for 15 seconds then the light go out. I don't own a Toyota but it's probably similar.

Get your computer read with a code reader, the light came on for a reason. You can goto your local auto store and get the codes read, they will tell you what needs to be fixed.

Also disconnecting the battery for any limit of time will not remove the codes from the computer..... only a code reader can erase codes. Your light came on for a reason... so trying bs quick fixes wont help your eninge at all.

Car Problem Question 2... Engine Misfires, O2 errors, odd time of running rough. What's wrong?

DO NOT disconect the battery! yes, it will (usually) clear the code,but it will also clear the adaptive something or other memory. then it will take a while before it will shift at the right times, and may hesitate and the such. like someone else said, autozone should have a code reader so they can reset it for you. unfortunatly, a code reader is the only good way to reset the light on any car newer then 96.

My car was involved in an accident a few months ago?

If you unhook the battery, it will clear the computer in your truck but if you go to get it inspected, it will most likely fail because they hook the machine up to the vehicle, all your doing is clearing the computer, which it will most likely come back on after you drive it for a while
