P0136 is the O2 sensor (Bank1, Sensor2) between the underneath catalytic converter and middle muffler.
Dealer MSRP is $140.00. I saw it on one toyota dealer in the internet for $108.
To replace: Unhook the wiring connector and unscrew the O2 sensor with the right wench.
To reset the check engine light. Remove one terminal of the battery, wait for a minute and put it back on. Computer is resetting, you have to run it around 50 to 100 miles before computer resets fully.
Getting it smog check before 50 miles will also fail the smog inspection. Reason: Computer not ready, still resetting all monitors.
