To reset the "Service" light on a Toyota 4Runner, start by turning on the instrument panel without starting the engine. Press the button below the instrument panel, usually located near the odometer, repeatedly until the maintenance settings screen appears on the display.

Once in the correct menu, locate the option for resetting service intervals. When you see the maintenance reset option, press and hold the same button until a confirmation of the reset completion appears on the display.

This will indicate that the procedure has been done correctly and the "Service" light should turn off, indicating that the system has recorded the new maintenance interval. It is essential to perform the reset every time a service or scheduled maintenance is completed, so that the system can properly monitor future maintenance intervals.

If the light does not turn off, repeat the procedure making sure you have followed the steps correctly.
