How Do I turn off the mainenance light on my Toyota Prius?
How do I turn off the Flashing Maintenance light (oil change reminder) on my Toyota Prius?
The oil change light will start flashing 4500 miles after the last reset to remind you that an oil change is coming up. Once at 5000 miles after the last reset, it stays on. If you change the oil yourself, or the dealer forgets to turn the light off, rather than taking it back to the dealer, do the following:
- Turn the power switch IG-ON and make sure that the ODO/TRIP meter is displaying the odometer.
- Turn the power switch OFF.
- While pushing the ODO button, turn the power switch IG-ON.
- The reminder light will flash until the reset is completed.
- The reset is complete when the reminder light turns OFF. Release the ODO button.
- After the reset, the ODO/TRIP meter displays as a set of zeros for 1 second, then displays your normal odometer mileage.
