Not sure why Lexus thought it was a good idea to add this particular Idiot Light, except to make people get nervous and go to the dealership.

At least they put the info to shut it off in the manual, so that's nice.

Thank you for this thread.
For the life of me I can never remember how to get the light off and always have to look it up...

...first make sure your odometer is reading total miles, not Trip 1 or Trip 2. Hold button in about 5-10 seconds after turning the key and you'll see the light go off.
