To reset the "Service" light on a Toyota 4Runner, turn on the instrument panel without starting the engine. Use the controls on the steering wheel to access the onboard computer menu.

Press the "Menu" or "Display" button to view the various available options. Then, use the arrow keys to navigate between categories and locate the section related to maintenance or service intervals.

Once you have reached the correct menu, select the "Maintenance" or "Reset interval" option. The system will prompt you to confirm the reset operation.

Press the confirmation button and wait until the process is complete. The "Service" light will turn off, indicating that the reset has been successfully performed and the vehicle has stored the new maintenance interval.

After resetting, it is good practice to turn off and on the instrument panel to verify that the light has been eliminated. If the light remains on, repeat the steps carefully to ensure that you have followed the procedure correctly.
