A 2000 model year Camry is a 4th generation car, so your question will be better answered in that section of the forum.

The overdrive button should be on the shifter stalk somewhere.

You may only need to replace an oxygen sensor to get that check-engine light to go away. Make sure you take it to an honest/good mechanic.
