How to reset the oil service light on Toyota Camry and Aurion

BySerge Barrett

The oil service reminder light on your Toyota Camry or Aurion usually comes on after the car reaches a certain mileage or time interval. Resetting this indicator after an oil change is a simple procedure that takes less than a minute. The steps are almost identical for most Camry models from 2007 to 2025 and for the Aurion (the Camry-based model sold in some markets).

Step-by-step guide to reset the oil maintenance light

Follow these instructions carefully. The exact buttons may vary slightly depending on your model year and whether your Camry has a multi-information display or a simple LCD screen.

  1. Turn the ignition switch to the “ON” position (do not start the engine).
  2. Make sure the odometer/trip meter is displayed on the screen.
  3. Press and hold the trip reset button (usually located on the instrument panel near the speedometer) until the display shows “000000”.
  4. While still holding the trip button, turn the ignition off and then back to “ON” again within a few seconds.
  5. Release the trip button when the display begins to flash or shows the oil maintenance reminder.
  6. Press the trip button again several times until “000” or the service indicator resets to zero.
  7. Turn the ignition off and then start the engine to confirm the light is gone.

Alternative method for newer Camry models (2018–2026)

On many recent Camry generations with a digital instrument cluster:

  1. Turn the ignition to “ON”.
  2. Use the steering wheel controls or the trip button to navigate to the “Settings” or “Vehicle Information” menu.
  3. Select “Maintenance” or “Oil Maintenance”.
  4. Choose “Reset” and confirm with “Yes”.
  5. Turn the ignition off and restart the car.

Important tips

  • Perform the reset only after you have actually changed the engine oil and oil filter. Resetting without service can lead to incorrect maintenance reminders.
  • If the light does not reset, try repeating the procedure. Make sure you turn the ignition fully off between attempts.
  • Some models require you to hold the button for 10–15 seconds or repeat the sequence twice.
  • If your Camry has a touchscreen infotainment system, you can sometimes reset the service interval through the car settings menu under “Maintenance”.

What to do if the reset does not work

If the oil service light still remains on after several attempts:

  • Check the fuse related to the instrument cluster.
  • Ensure the battery terminals are clean and tight.
  • Use an OBD-II scanner with service reset function (many cheap scanners support Toyota oil reset).
  • Visit a Toyota dealer — in rare cases, the ECU may need a software update or professional reset.

Resetting the oil service light on a Toyota Camry or Aurion is straightforward once you know the correct sequence. Doing it yourself saves time and money after every oil change.
