  1. 1998 Camry XLE 6 cyl./Auto - 85,000 miles, all fluids topped, but Engine Check light remains on. April 2, 2020. Hello Fellow Toyota Fans! Low mileage, been taking it in for service, the last oil change was last December 2019. The day before yesterday Tuesday, after getting gas at Costco, on my way home I noticed the ENGINE check light came on. Last December when I took it to Toyota for an oil change, they were supposed to top off all liquids, including, (1) Automatic Transmission Fluid, (ATF) (2) Engine oil change, and (SAE 5W-30) (3) Engine Coolant, (4) Maybe the windshield wiper wash fluid, or maybe not. When I returned home, I left the engine OFF, for a few minutes before I checked the fluids. The A.T.F. reservoir was below the MINIMUM HOT LINE, so I filled it up to the MAXIMUM HOT LINE. Re-started the engine, light still on. I then filled up the Engine coolant, and also the windshield reservoir. I unloosened, and re-tightened both the ENGINE OIL CAP, and the GAS CAP. Re-started the engine, drove to the post office and to the grocery store, was on the freeway, to try and get the engine hot, but the darn dummy light still remains ON, when I returned home again. PLEASE, was I very wrong to have thought all these years, that all Toyota engines and transmissions last for a few hundred thousand miles? VERY LOW MILEAGE.....85,000 miles, and now I am very worried that this may end up costing me the only money that I have left in all of my life's savings, just to fix this problem. Silly question, and in the realm of, "Stranger things have happened," but before I input all my AM/FM radio stations in my radio again, and seeing that all ATF, and Coolant fluid levels are ideal, and within range, AND IF, by dis-connecting and re-connecting my car battery, make it default again, can this reset my dummy gauges, and will no longer see this annoying, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT? Ha, I told you it was silly. I am NOT a mechanic, just a fifteen year disabled, rare tumor cancer patient on very a low SSDI income. Thank you for any feedback, or suggestions, I desperately need all I can get. Stay Safe, Wash your hands, Try to Stay Healthy! CammyJim
