Service required light staying on this morning

[caaront]

Not time for an oil change, the car is running perfectly, but I just got it a month ago so not sure what the service schedule is for it as far as when the last folks had it serviced.


I figure it might just be time to have it serviced as it is at about 114,500 miles so the regular oil,change would be at 115,000 miles.

I got the car with 112,000 and no idea when the oil was changed so I had fresh full synthetic put in and will change at 6000 intervals.

Should I take it to a Toyota dealer, or can I just somehow reset the light?

I am quite sure there is no problem, thinking themcar thinks its time for a service check.

May be wrong, thats why I'm asking here.

Thank you.

This is based on when the maintenance required light was last reset. To shut it off, switch from odometer to trip "A". Shut the car off. Now hold the trip counter reset button in and turn the key to accessory while still holding the button in. You will see five bars and they will each disappear one at a time when they are all gone, the maintenance light will then be reset. (At least I think it is five bars to start.) Whenever you do your next oil change, do another reset and you will be back on schedule with the maintenance light.
