this is a pretty generic post, you might need to include some more info. Has the vehicle been acting strange in any way, getting worse mileage, less power, noises, et.?

what is the engine, the year, and the mileage? any recent service or damage?

1999 sr5 4runner with 150,000 miles. hasn't acted strange in any way, no damage and the light just comes on for about an hour and then later it won't be back on.

It could be anything... Maybe O2 sensor, EGR valve, something like that. Go to autozone or somewhere like that and have them pull the codes. Then come back and you can get an answer.
