You can take it back and have them reset the light that they for got to do. Or check your manual and do it your self. I think you push the trip setter and hold it until the dashes disappear. Or go to trip a and then push and hold.

SOURCE: maintenance required light on 2008 camry, why is

Hello. Welcome to FIxYa. Please allow us to assist you

The maintenance required light is there to remind you that your oil change is due. This light needs to be reset after the oil ic changed, it is manually reset. If you just had your oil changed, the light will not go off by itself. The light is designed to illuminate after 5,000 miles since the last reset procedure.

This is a scheduled check-up programed into your cars computer. They will put your car on a computer to check the electronics. They do a service on the vehicle. Some of these maintenance are covered under your warranty. Check with you dealership to see if your covered. Dealership make most of their money when they sell you parts( its in the markup). You can call, and they will tell you the prices. You can bring in your own parts, but they will not give any warranty on the work. Usually they will change the oil, and air filter. Change the oil, and check the coolant, an add any if needed. They will make sure the injectors and throttle body is working. Basically, they will give it a complete going over. You can call, and they will tell you what is going to be done. If you don't want to spend the money, your local mechanic can reset the light. The service is up to you. I would call the dealer, and ask first, before you make your mind up. Hope this helps.

How can i reset maintenance required light on 2007 toyota prius

Take it to your nearest Toyota service department and have the required service performed. Believe me, preventive maintenance is much cheaper than repairs that are required from part failure from a missed service.

Where is the fog light switch located on prius 08
