My "Maintenance Required" light on the dash is flashing 4-5-6 times when I start up the Prius every time, and I have no idea why... I went through all of my Maintenance menu items and most of them arent set to begin with, but the ones that ARE set, still have 4000+ miles til the next service Am I missing something here?
mine starts flashing somewhere before the 500 mile of the next 5000 mark flashes faster and a few more times as I get closer to the 5k
Hmmm... As far as I can tell, I have 4000 until the next services. Im going to recheck, maybe I missed one. OK...just went to the Prius, went through every item in the maintenance menu, and nothing is due for service anytime soon. The oil change/oil filter says "4722 miles REMAINING". Just for kicks, I reset the oil filter & tire rotation. I checked the air filter, and it still looks new and I have my winter tires on so no rotation needed there. Still, the MAINT REQD light blinks when I start the car Anybody? Dumb da dum dum dumb!! I forgot do the "ODO-Brake" reset with I changed my oil last. I reset it that way until all the dashes were gone and guess what - no more flashing light. Funny, because Ive changed the oil on the Prius a few times and I always remembered those times to reset do the odo-brake reset. This past time I totally forgot
