2024 Toyota Highlander Check Engine Light Reset
Resetting a check engine light on a 2024 Toyota Highlander can be quick, but it should follow a proper diagnosis to avoid masking an underlying issue. Simple resets may clear the lamp temporarily, yet if the root cause — a failing sensor, intermittent charging or battery issue, or emission fault — remains untreated, the light will return and potentially lead to greater repairs. At Larry H. Miller American Toyota Albuquerque our process begins with a full scan of the vehicle’s OBD-II system using OEM-level tools to capture active and pending codes, freeze-frame data, and live sensor readings. We explain findings in plain language, provide transparent estimates, and only reset the light after corrective repairs or a verified temporary condition (like a loose gas cap). Choosing dealership service means certified technicians, genuine Toyota parts, and warranty protection for covered repairs. We also offer service financing so you can get necessary repairs now and pay over time. To ensure a proper outcome and preserve long-term value, schedule service and review our service specials for savings.
2024 Toyota Highlander Check Engine Light Codes
Understanding check engine light codes for a 2024 Toyota Highlander helps drivers in Albuquerque make informed decisions about repairs. Common codes include oxygen sensor faults (affecting emissions and fuel economy), misfire codes (which can damage catalytic converters and reduce towing reliability), EVAP system faults (often a loose gas cap), and battery/charging system alerts that can impact electronic controls. Ignoring these codes can escalate costs: an oxygen sensor left unrepaired can reduce fuel economy and damage the catalytic converter; misfires can lead to expensive exhaust system repairs; and charging system issues can cause battery failure and leave you stranded. At Larry H. Miller American Toyota Albuquerque we diagnose codes with factory-grade scanners, clearly explain the consequences of deferred maintenance, and offer repair options that often cost less than independent shops when considering accuracy, warranty coverage, and longevity. Our certified technicians use OEM parts to restore factory performance and protect your vehicle’s resale value.

Miller American Toyota Albuquerque our technicians prioritize flashing light diagnostics and will inspect ignition components, fuel delivery, sensors, and battery/charging systems to identify root causes.
