I was driving for around for 5mins, then the engine check light came on. After shutting the car off for about 3-4 hrs the light went away. Any suggestions whats going on? BTW its a 94 Celica.

read the code. connect e1 and te1 in the diagnostic connector then count the sequence the check engine light blinks. It should blink a number of times, then pause a sec, then blink another number of times. for example, if it were code 54, it would blink blink blink blink blink-pause-blink blink blink blink. five times then four times would be code 54. find out the code then read in your service manual what the code is. or if you dont have a service manual find out from someone who has it. its prob on the internet somewhere. I only have the codes for a 88-89 and 94-98 3sgte, (some might be the same) then once you know the fault you can begin to troubleshoot it. most of the time it is a defective component. on rare occasions it is wiring or a bad ecu
