my dealer programs the dash light for oil maint. service due for 5k miles even though oil doesnt get changed until 10k miles. is there a way for me to program or reset it myself? nothing mentioned in the manual that i could find. thanx
The 5k maintenance light is preset by Toyota not your dealer. The answer to reprogramming is no. Your maintenance manual shows 5k maintenance items beyond oil changes. Tire rotation, fluid level checks, etc. You can do most of these yourself if you choose. To reset, have the right display on Trip A, turn off engine, hold down KPH/MPH button and hit Power button. A bar chart showing reset progress will appear. Once reset is complete release KPH/MPH button.
This is from my note on how to reset the "maintenance" message Reset Prius “Maintenance Required” message Go to “trip A” Power off car Hold down “km/h” button while pressing the power on button
Yes my Maintenance soon comes on I have 4700 miles on and at 5k is a tire rotation only 10k will be oil and tires
