Alright, now we’re in the Lexus LS460 and will reset this maintenance light. It’s pretty simple if, with most Toyota’s, you’re going to hit the trip button and hold it down, but with this Lexus, you’re actually going to hold down the RESET button. So now all you need to do is:
- Turn on your car without starting the engine
Hit the START button two times with your foot off the brake to turn on the ignition
- Get to the TRIP A screen
When you’re gonna end up doing is you’re gonna be using the TRIP button you have right here and you’re gonna need to set the trip on TRIP A

- Hold down the RESET button while turning on the ignition again
After that, I’m gonna hold the RESET button here but while I’m doing this I’m gonna hit the START button two times with my foot off the brake so I don’t want the car to start
- Continue to hold down the RESET button
Keep holding that button and you’ll see it’s resetting the maintenance and then it’s done
