engine check and VSC lidht came on

Hi,
On my 2002 Highlander with 68,000 mi the check engine and VSC lights came on this morning. I know that for some cars there is a way to retrieve the cod without hooking up the diagnostic tool, basically by performing a cetain sequence of operations. On a friends car, for example, turning the ignition on/off several times in a row will read out and display the enging check light code on the dashboard display.

Does anyone know if something like that is supported on the 202 Highlander. This is a Limited, 4WD, V6.

Help is appreciated.
Thanks

On Highlanders, sometimes the problem can be vacuum hose leak or hose being dislodged, or gas cap gasket. A common one for V6 is hose near the air cleaner housing being dislodged.If there is an Autozone nearby, they will read the code for free.

Thank you for the info ... I'll be stopping by Autozone on the way home from work today ...
