Can a loose fuel tank cap turn on the check engine light?

2014–2019

A loose fuel tank cap may temporarily switch on the malfunction indicator lamp, and the vehicle might not pass the I/M test.

The OBD error code stays until the vehicle has been driven 40 or more times; contact your Toyota dealer to get ready for retesting.

Page 421 in the 2019 manual →

2009–2013

A disconnected or discharged battery, a loose fuel tank cap, or incomplete readiness codes can prevent passing the I/M test.

What does the check engine light mean?

2014–2019

When the malfunction indicator lamp turns on, the OBD system has found an issue within the emission control system.

The vehicle could fail the I/M test and require repairs, so have your Toyota dealer service it.
