My service engine soon light recently went on. I took it to a local auto parts store, and they hooked it up to there analyzer, and told me it was my thermostat. I still am getting hot air. How do o now its not a faulty sensor, and if its the thermostat is it the upper or lower? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Mike.
Thanks for all the help everyone! I now realize it only has one thermostat. My problem is AutoZone's tester only gives general information. I guess I have to bite the bullit [pun intended]and take it to a mechanic to have them put it on there computer so I can see what code number I'm getting.

OK thanks, so I was wondering why one car had both warnings if they meant the same thing. I've been driving Toyotas for a while and their service engine soon light only means it's time for regular maintenance and there won't be an associated error code. They also have a check engine light which means an error or out of range condition has been detected by the ECU - no overlap in the two lights meanings.
