Can't make "Oil Maint Required" go away
I just did a oil/filter change on my 2006 GS last week. I have a Blue Driver Pro ODB tool and did a complete scan - no issues. Nonetheless, I had to clear the "Oil Maint Required" message from the dash and all other codes. In less than a week, the Red warning triangle reappeared with that message. Maybe driven 20 miles since oil change.
The car had a new gas cap and new spark plugs/coils 2 years ago. A new alternator last year. I don't think these are relevant, just mentioning. Has about 126K miles.
Could this message indicate some other problem, and if so, why does my Blue Driver detect nothing?

exus takes us through the steps in resetting that Maintenance Required Light that pops up on the Instrument Panel. Depress and HOLD the Trip Meter RESET button while turning the ignition switch to the ON position. 7. Turn the ignition to the OFF position.Apr 17, 2018

EDIT: Your reset button should be on the drop down control panel, right next to the ODO/TRIP button.
