Default Maintenance light problem

I can't get my maintenance (on my 2003 GX470) required light to go off , using the manual instructions ( I recently replaced my left front blinker light)
I found the solution , I was trying to reset the light using my trip meter instead of my odometer meter ........dumb , but true

Follow this and you should have it dissappeared.

1. With your Ignition OFF, place your key in the ignition and turn to "On". Do not start the car.
2. Find the odometer button on your cluster 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. Then while still holding the button, turn the key back to "On" (not START).
5. Hold the odometer button in until the MAINT REQD light goes out...

There you go ! Simple is'nt it.
