How to turn off the engine light on a Toyota vehicle

Model: Toyota Toyota Various
Part: Warning light – error code

In this video, we see three methods to turn off the engine light. The first is through an OBD11 device and our EOBD socket (European On Board Diagnostic). From there we can find the error code, decode it through one of the many apps we can download on our smartphone, and then delete it. The second method is to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, so that the system resets. By reconnecting them, everything will return to its place; but this system has the disadvantage that we need the radio code to restart it, and also we will have to reset the date and time. Last method: Remove the cover of the fuse box and the mirror diagram on it, look for the ECU fuse, or the ECM fuse. Remove the fuse briefly and then put it back in place. By doing this, the control unit will reset.
