Hi -- Wow, I'm glad
Hello
when the check engine light comes on it is the cars on board computer (called a PCM) alerting you that a fault has occurred in the electronic engine, emission or transmission controls, when the light is switched on there is a fault code stored in the computer to indicate what part or parts in the electronics has failed or is not working within the parameters set by the programming stored inside the computers read only memory, there are over 200 poss fault codes so guessing what might be wrong is not an option, you will need to have a fault code test run on the OBD 2 electronic control system, if u are not in California u can have this done free of charge by most Kragen and Autozone parts stores, I do caution u though to not seek advice from the folks at the parts store on the code meaning or what needs to be done, they are parts techs and not certified automotive technicians.

I turned my car on this am and the check engine
If the light was flashing when it came on, then it means your engine is misfiring.
A solid light can mean anything from a loose/faulty gas cap to a transmission issue.
This
light comes on when the computer detects a
fault of some sort in its diagnostic tests. If it keeps detecting this
issue, the light will remain on. If the light turns off, then it has
detected that the issue may no longer be present.
In
order to find out what the exact reason was for your light, You need to
have your car computer scanned to retrieve the code that
the computer would have stored when the light triggered. Most garages
will do this free of charge. The code will tell you what may have
caused the light to initially turn on.

How do i install a new headlight assembly on a
Simply remove the plastic cover over the headlights and radiator. This is easy to remove by removing the plastic clips. On the headlamp assembly, there are three bolts that need to removed, two under the plastic cover and one at the top of the fender. Once this is done, gently pull it out, it will tend to hold onto the fender as it is grooved to do this...then reverse the steps to reinstall the headlight assembly

Replacing the battery in a 1999 Lexus LX470
There are a few thing's, one thing is to not accidentally touch the positive terminal with the negative battery cable or touch the negative terminal with the positive battery cable when your removing or installing the battery, if one of the cable's do touch the other post it may blow some fuse's, on some vehicles with radio anti theft systems when you remove the battery the radio will lock out, if you don't have the code you'll have to take it to a service dealer to have them reset it, other than that it's pretty much straight forward. good luck.

Had oil change two weeks
This sounds like a problem with a sensor on the engine or transmission. You may want to have your car taken to a diagnostic specialist where they can retrieve "engine codes". Your check engine light is informing you of a possible failure of a sensor or switch in relation to your vehicle's computer. A special computer will be capable of retrieving engine codes and a competent mechanic should be able to decipher and perform whatever repair is necessary.

Vehicle stability control
run the fault codes to check for sensor and wiring faults. The ABS and the stability system use the same sensors at the wheels so it could be an air gap problem at a sensor or a loose/ broken wire /connection. Check wheel bearings for condition and adjustment as that will affect the air gap on the front wheels ( especially on turns when the hub is allowed to move out of alignment from the side load of the turn)
