HOW TO RESET TOYOTA MAINTENANCE LIGHT
Toyota is one of the world’s leading auto manufacturers. For almost a century, they’ve developed some of the most notoriously immortal automobiles on the market. From decades-old pickups that still go to little sedans-that-can-in-any-conditions, most people drive ‘Yota’s darn near ’til the wheels fall off (which takes a bit longer than usual).
This doesn’t often happen, but sometimes after visiting a Toyota mechanic- or handling those repairs yourself- your maintenance light may stay on at all times. Annoying, huh? Well, we’re here to help with this quick little guide on resetting the maintenance light in most Toyota vehicles.
MAINTENANCE LIGHT RESET
This exact procedure works for most models, but you should always check the owner’s manual, just in case. To find the owner’s manual for your specific model/year, visit this page of the official Toyota website.
- Turn on your car
- Turn off the vehicle, then Press Trip Reset and Hold
- Car on (still Holding Trip Reset)
- Keep the Reset Button Pressed until you see dashes, then zeros
- Release Reset Button
Now the maintenance light should be off, and you won’t constantly be wondering if you need to see a Toyota mechanic or not.
