What causes a Tundra’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Tundra can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Is it possible to reset the Tundra malfunction warning light on my own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Tundra's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Tundra.

How worried should I be about a drivetrain malfunction in my Tundra?

If your Tundra has a drivetrain malfunction, don't wait. Get it checked out by a professional mechanic. Identifying the underlying cause and performing the appropriate repairs right away can help prevent further damage and avoid unsafe driving conditions.

Does my Tundra transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Tundra’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Tundra forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.
