OMG. My check engine light was on for a couple days. I went out and turned the ignition to 'on' three times and it went OFF! You saved me a trip to the dealership...and lots of $$. Thank you!

My check engine light came on. I went and got an Oil Change and the Engine light went right off immediately. Havent come on since. Thank you for this video, at least it told us to check other options before spending a whole lot of money. Thanks so much. Gereat video.

Success !!! 2004 Toyota Sequoia vsc, track and engine lights on after a minor service. 3 clicks didn't work. Remove left terminal connection, cleaned everything up, waited about 10 minutes, reconnected and bingo! Lights out! Thank you VERY much. Saved a trip to the mechanic and a costly diagnostic appointment.

@ TightWadDIY I am 87 years old, and the temp out there is
87 but feels like 97 ! Have driven
my 16 years old Camry for 3 wks
now with the check engine light
on, and a New gas cap.
I first tried the 3 time...On, off....
Didn't work. Then, next, battery
neg. off. Works like a charm !!!
What can I say ? Thanks a million TightWadDIY.👍🙏

Thank you so much 😊 a dealer was telling I need to replace some engine part and mentioned a very expensive amount. Maybe because I am a woman so I thought of listening to your videos now I will ask intelligently

Cleaning the gas cap didn't clear those lights, but removing the negative battery and leaving off for 5mn worked for me and I didn't lose my radio settings.

So glad there are people out there that do things, not just for financial gain but just because it's the honourable thing to do!

Dude, it really worked. The TCS light disappeared when I switch my ignition to on position 3 times. My check engine light went away as well when I removed the negative post & let it sit about 5 mins. I thought it was going to cost me a lot if it wasn't for your video. Thanks men!!😊

The ignition 3x worked for me. Check engine light came on after I cleaned the throttle body and mass air flow sensor. Thought I broke something. This did the trick. Thank you.

I'm so glad you informed others including myself on not going straight to emissions to get a test because I just went and got my Gas pump assembly replaced and my engine light was still on so I came home and tuned in to your channel blog and took off the ground wire for 5 min and worked successfully now I will wait and drive for 2 weeks before going to emissions

i had a check engine light come on. got it checked at autozone just a thermostat issue. had 20.00 in rewards from autozone and paid 1.61 out of pocket. came to YouTube learned how to replace it. I was waiting for the check engine light to turn off. Then decided to look up how to manually turn off a check engine lightCame across your video and the battery terminal wire wire worked flawlessly. thank you

[sethkyere]

I solved a check light problem simply by closing the gas cap. I love this video.

[adriannraden]

It is so good too have people like you guy's out there, thanks so much

[kidanegzgabher]

OMG, it’s went off after plugged out the-ve battery for 5 minutes. Appreciate for your support and dedication 🎉

[NinoPrez]

A BIG thank you from🇨🇦🇨🇦. . Turning the key to the on position 3 times worked for me!👍👍🍹🍹

Smart, simple, easy to understand, especially for novices.

[apuzyr]

Glad to hear you warned about NOT going to Motor Vehicle inspection right after resetting the check engine light. Their computer system will know it and fail you. Saying this from experience.
