What kind of car do you have?

Hi All, sorry to dig up an old thread. Just did an oil change even before the maintenance light came on. Attempted the procedures as above but the ODO does not changed to the dashes. Does the maintenance light need to be turned on already before this works?

No, the maintenaince light does not need to be on already for this feature to be reset. If you changed your oil at 5000 miles and want to reset it, you can do it by pressing down on the ODO button and then turning the key to the ACC.setting.

You need to hold the ODO button for more than 5 sec for the it to be completely reset. There should be a countdown timer on the odometer if you did it correctly.

Default I had the same trouble

Thanks for this thread. I’m from foreign county so first I’m sorry for my poor English.

I was struggling as you reseting the maintenance required light until I found this thread. But several tries, I finally reset the light.

I have 2008Lexus RX350

The point is pressing ODO/TRIP button and turn ignition to ON almost at the same time.

I pressed ODO/TRIP button first then turn the ignition so no 6 dash appeared on the odometer.

Once you know the right procedure, it is so quick!

hope this will help other Lexus owners.
