smog check for my car did not pass because I had the maintenance engine light on and Toyota did the repairs

Asked by GuruWGJ48 Jun 06, 2018 at 02:17 AM about the 2012 Toyota Corolla S

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I bought my used Toyota Corolla car with check engine light was on until I
went to Toyota to get my airbag replaced and had them check engine light
on.
They did some repairs so the warning light was no longer showing.  I went
to get my smog check and it felled because the computer did not reset.
They told me to drive on freeway to get it reset.  I drove all weekend and still
not passing.  They said I must drive on freeway.  I did I long as I could stand
it.  But if it fails again can the computer be reset manually by a service
person?

The codes need to be cleared and a drive cycle completed. Look up how to complete a drive cycle on the web.

My 2003 Toyota Corolla with 175,000 miles was showing the check engine light. My friend ran a check and the code P0770 came up, which is Shift Solenoid 'E' Malfunction. When I'm on the freeway, I do notice my car is slow on accelerating, but my MPG is fine. How much would it cost to get this fix? Also, would I fail the California SMOG check? My friend removed the check engine light and it hasn't reappeared (It's been a good 500 miles without it reappearing, but my car is still slow at accelerating). Thanks guys! 11 Answers

A couple of months ago, my check engine light went on with the code p0770. My friend used his OBD reader and turned it off. Since then, it hasn't turned back on for over 300 miles. My car is due for smog check soon and I was just wondering if I would fail the inspection. Oh yeah, I live in California. Thanks! 2 Answers
