Default Trip reser

I just bought my 2014 lexus GS 350 and I was doing the oil change on it and as I was trying to remove the maintenance required light I wasn’t able to do it. I’ve watched the videos and it seemed easy enough but for some reason when I press on the trip reset button nothing happens. So was wondering if there was a fuse or something the controls that button or is it something more that I’m not knowing?

You've got to put the odometer in Trip A and then turn off the engine, then hold the odometer button pushed in when the car and engine is Off - and without pressing the brake pedal hit the Start button twice, and the maintenance reminder will reset and not appear again until 5,000 miles are driven.

like I’ve said I’ve tried that way plus 2 other ways and nothing has worked. It has to be the button because I can’t even get it to show trip A or trip B . That’s why I was wondering if there’s a fuse for it or is it something more that might be wrong

Then that's a problem - because you have to put the odometer in Trip A first before turning off the engine - - before holding the odometer button pushed in without pressing the brake pedal and hitting the Start button twice in order to reset the maintenance reminder. If you can't even get it to display Trip A then you're not going to be able to reset the reminder. I've never heard of this before...

Try disconnecting the battery. Wait 10 mins and reconnect. Before you disconnect, Cut everything off.

I hope the Trip A/B is not a sign of Odometer tampering. Did you pull a Carfax and check mileage accuracy?

@marty1488 - Does your 4GS have an auto-start installed?

Is the instrument panel settings menu different in the 2014 and 2018? Here's where I reset the Maintenance messages.

@chinee - Yes, the way the maintenance reminder is reset is very different...
