Main Req Light

Does anyone know how to turn off the Main. Req. light on a 2004 Lexus RX330 with navigation? Any help would be appreciated.

The owner's manual states the procedure, check it out.

Thank you... found it... I knew how to sort of do it but totally forgot about the ODO/TRIP button on the side of the steering wheel.

Make sure the odometer is set to total miles not trip. With the key in the off position, push in and hold the odometer button (ODO). Turn the key to the on position without starting the car. Continue to hold in the odometer reset button until the maintenance required light goes off (about 20 seconds).

There you go. The many times I have done this, I still can not memorize this procedure. I do now.

Additional info.

If the procedure doesn't work, some models require that when you turn the key to the off position, you have to remove the key and re-insert it before turning it back on.
