Do these steps always work to remove the light even for a few minutes? I tried to do mine it flashed except at the end it stayed on. Also do you know where I could find any info on which code it would be

If there is an unrepaired issue, the codes will not clear and the light will remain on.

This thread has most of the codes listed in it:

Hey Scott,thanks for the fast reply. One more question if you don't mind. I got a dtc 32. Now my question is will replacing the computer underneath the passenger seat fix this? And also if I do replace it can I simply swap them out or would I still need to reset the ecu? The car was hit in the front about a year ago and a few days after I got it back from the body shop the light flashed at first but now its on steady and my inspection is up in a few days. I looked under the seat and the ecu was hanging there off of its bracket. doesn't make sense,don't know why they messed with it since the airbags didn't deploy. Thanks in advance for any help

You could replace it without issue, and would still need to do the reset afterward. Another person who had this issue went to their dealer, who "reprogrammed" the OC ECU with the Toyota Techstream tool, which more likely was recalibrated it.

Where in Mass are you located? If you wanted to take a ride down to CT, I could try the same for you with my Techstream tool, which would save on purchasing a replacement.
