"Maint. Required" Light

Feb 22, 2005 3 Replies

I've recently started getting the "Maint. Required" light for a short time after start-up on my 2005 Camry LE. According to the manual, it's something that is to be reset after every 5000 miles recommended oil change. I'm approaching 5000 miles now. Does anyone know how to reset this? Can it be done other than with special equipment? I'd like to be able to change my own oil rather than go to the dealer each time.



Thanks


Insert key Turn key to Acc Push and hold odometer pushbutton Turn key to on The odometer reading turns to dashes The dashes slowly disappear When the dashes all go away, and turn to zeroes, release the odometer button The light goes out and stays out for another 5000 miles

Thanks much, Travis. You da Man!
