Default Maintenance Required Light

I have tried several methods to reset this light with no success. Can someone provide the correct process for a 2006 LS 430.

Push the ODO/TRIP button to change the display to blank.

Turn the ignition switch off.

Hold the RESET button and turn the ignition switch on, and don't release the RESET button until you hear the tone and the light turns off.

Make sure you are pressing the reset button for the trip odometer and not the one on the steering wheel.

Reset Maintenance Required Light

1. With your car OFF, place your key in the ignition and turn to ""On"". Do not start the car.

2. Find the odometer button and press until it reads the total odometer setting, (not the Trip A or Trip B setting).

3. Turn the key to OFF.

4. Place your finger back on the odometer button, press and hold. At the same time, turn the key back to ""On"".

5. Hold the odometer button in until the MAINT REQ light goes out...should take about 8-10 seconds.

FYI... works the same way for the Honda Accord but you don't have to set the odometer display to anything special.
