Default Reset Maintenance reminder

Does anyone know to reset this light. It is annoying and I have tried holding odo button while pushing start twice on trip a and it doesn't work. Even going into the vehicle settings and I can't get it to reset.

joe311, the reset instructions are in the maintenance section (page 466 for the 450h) of the owners manual. I tried it without resetting and it's pretty simple. Go to the control on the right side of the steering wheel, Using the right arrow button, scroll to the icon that looks like a circle. It's the last one for me. Down arrow to vehicle settings. Then down arrow to scheduled maintenance. Up arrow to select yes. Press the middle button to confirm. It's supposed to give you a message saying it's reset. You were probably trying the reset instructions for the 3RX.

Default Maintenance reminder popup

Wife's 2016 RX (w/12" navi) is getting 15K maintenance reminder (tire rotation and air filter). I went into the Menu - Car settings and turned off the reminders but the reminder popup is still there ever time you start the car. I didn't see anything in the owner's manual.

Anybody knows how to turn these off?

Thanks in advance.

When you say menu in the odometer, do you mean the small screen between the gauges? In this screen, you can navigate to the warning/ alert page (little triangle) where it shows the 'maintenance required' warning (which mine lite up at 15K). I tried holding the center (dot) on the steering wheel button (which clears other things like MPG) and it doesn't go away. Also tried the odometer button, but it just cycles between total miles/ trip A/ trip B.

You reset the oil reminder in the vehicle settings within the main dash board, by the speedo. I suspect you do the same for the other settings...mine just hasn't "popped up"

Go into the little screen beside the speedo. Use the arrow keys on the steering wheel to get to the little icon that looks like a gear, it's round with teeth...sort of. I think the car has to be turned on and in park. At least that's how I did it...

Go down to vehicle settings and you will see the setting that needs to be acknowledged. Tab on the reminder and it asks if you want to reset it, yes and then hit the dot (.)

Hope this works for you.

Worked like a charm. Thanks FF!

When I was going thru the menus, I came across a screen that had range and MPH. My MPH was 28. I drove for 30 miles at highway speed and the 28 didn't change. Since I have never reset the MPH, is my 28 MPH my average over the life (16K) of my car?

I believe that would be the number since last fill up.

Yes, it is an average over an extended period of time, but I believe that it might re-set itself when the odometer passes 10,000 miles, 20,000 miles, etc. So, after it has accumulated a few thousand miles of data, the reading is not likely to change much until/unless there is a significant amount of driving done with mpg vastly different from what has already been accumulated.

There is a separate display item for mpg since last fill-up.

Default Remove maintenance required indicator on 2017 RX?

I am getting multiple notices on my 2017 RX as the vehicle is approaching 15K miles for maintenance. both in the nav screen and front dash.

It says "maintenance required, visit your dealer."

Any idea on how can I remove this? Please help.

Thanks.

Default How to get rid of 'Maintenance Required' message

2020 RX450h F-Sport

It appears when the ignition is turned on, and remains until I hit the 'return' button.

I reset all maintenance reminders, but that didn't help.

Thanks.

Go by the service schedule that came with the vehicle.
In glovebox probably with owners manual.

I think that you may have to reset the maintenance button also (in addition to the oil reset). It will kick at the intervals even if you do your own work or have it done elsewhere.

I have also attached the schedule that I use for my 2020 RX AWD. I slightly modified the car service schedule (ie...oil less than 10,000 miles, etc).
