How To Reset The Maintenance Required Light On A 2012-2014 Toyota Prius

[@billbedell1693]

He is right up to the point that after you push the start button twice, you need to keep holding down the km/h - MPH button till the reset is finished. Good video. Thanks.

[@Brainbuster]

You're right! It worked only after I kept pressing the km/h button until the display showed it was finished resetting.

[@sapphireclipse]

Oh man THANK you! I thought I was the only moron not doing it right. That worked!

[@nazarenkoy2680]

I did all of these steps but It doesn’t work. I’m holding the button all the time, but it wont reset anything

[@irock2dmax]

Dude thank you

[@vincentlenart1697]

​@nazarenkoy2680 for some reason on some of these cars you have to make sure your display screen is set to "energy monitoring" for it to work. It took me some time reading forums to figure this out. Seems like an extremely important detail to leave out.

[@brianhotte3882]

I still watch your video every time I change my oil even after 4 years.

[@HowtoAutomotive]

Well thank you for watching!

[@OfficerVideoGame]

It’s rare to find a youtube video where everything is laid out right away, directions are clear, and to the point without needless transitions or editing graphics. This video is PERFECT. Right to the point. Clear directions with great visuals. Quick. And above all else: correct. Thank you.

[@HowtoAutomotive]

Glad you like the video. Thank you for watching!

[@vincentlenart1697]

You're missing crucial detail that would save a lot of people serious headaches if included; Make sure that your display is set to the energy monitor screen... might not be required on all gen 3 prii but is required for mine. Found it on a forum after reading through accusations that the op wasn't following instructions... which they and i were.

[@LuisGarcia-iy7oh]

Omg thank you!!! I wasint getting it, it took me 2 hours due to this crucial detail I didn't have

[@vincentlenart1697]

@LuisGarcia-iy7oh No problem! I'm glad i could help spare someone some of the frustration i went through.

[@MaadOP]

Damn dude you’re a g, this worked for me thank you.

[@6985794]

After many tries gave up but finally found your thread and bingo I’d buy you a beer if I knew who you were lol thanx.

[@BFarmer1980]

It was the consumption screen for me, but either way, I'm thinking the key is that it can't be just left on the maintenance required screen upon turning off. I could be wrong.

[@julietlewis798]

You’re a life saver! Thank you! The mechanic didn’t even know how to do this and Google wasn’t helpful either. You’re awesome!

[@ras0906]

Thank you for this clear short video. I just changed my oil and wanted to reset the maintenance required light. The previous video I looked at did not say to push the power button twice with the brake pedal off at the same time as holding the kilometers per hour to miles per hour button. Your stating that clearly helped. Thanks.

[@marccharlot8896]

Oh my goodness thanks dude….I’ve watch like 6 different videos and even read the manual couldn’t figure it out. Blessing

[@antionnetperera]

Thanks! This helped alot, got oil change at Valvoline and they forgot to do it. Totally appreciate it. 😊

[@dan-ch8kr]

thank you for this, i’ve had this display for such a long time and didn’t think there was a fix for it 😭✊

[@markfitzpatrick6692]

Thank you so much for this. The valvaline guys forget or don’t know how and this is a great video to refer too.

[@joanneesther777]

I appreciate you making this so easy for me I've watched your video three times to reset my light and every time it's so easy sadly I'm not smart enough to remember so I have to watch it every time it's time to redo it lol

[@dougchaffin2608]

Dude! This works. The manual does NOT say this. It ommits pushing the Start button 2X. Thanks!

[@HowtoAutomotive]

@@dougchaffin2608 glad it worked out. Thank you for watching!

[@Warfightertechnologyservices]

Absolutely the easiest explanation out there. You’re doing a great job. Thank you.

[@carolwalter3877]

Thank you for making it so easy that I could do it myself!

[@Replicant9900]

My KMH/MPH is in a different spot on my 2012 plug-in, but it worked for me! Thanks!

[@JarrydMartin02]

Great video! Perfect demonstration/explanation. Great work, it’s appreciated!!!

I tried it 5 times and so did the tire tech at discount tire... dosn't work. 😢

[@Shawnikan]

Thanks man I've had to come to this video twice I think I'll remember how to do it now!

[@Bkilfoil747]

That was the first time I got that done on the first try. Thanks so much for the easy and fast video!

[@beccal8711]

Thank you so much!! ❤ Omg I love KZbin University!! That light was freaking me out because I'm in the middle of a weekend trip.

[@HowtoAutomotive]

Lol KZbin university. Glad the video is helpful. Thank you for watching!

[@marianaazevedo8641]

Thank you for the concise and direct video, it was very helpful!

[@Ken-cl8nr]

Great vid. Tried 3 video from others and they were all wrong!

[@tavita]

And I'm back for the 3rd time. Thanks again!

[@istanbulmuskisi5705]

Thanks man I just did this at a parking lot of a shop after the oil change because they could not do it.

[@kimroot2779]

Thank you. That was easy! I always wondered how to do that. Now I know.

[@DeetswithLeets]

Thank you so much for this! Super helpful information

[@ryanschafer1870]

I had my oil changed and the guy couldn't figure out how to turn off the light. I come here and fix it in seconds lol. Thanks!

[@clintonlemarluke1507]

The MPH/KPH button on my 2013 Prius Plug-in is below the Fuel Door Release Button on the dash to the lower left of the steering wheel.

[@TheSilentAsassin75]

Still come back to this video every few months🙏

[@jonathanwilliams6922]

Your dream machine sir 😎

[@FCdrums]

One of the best explanations on how to, thank you very much

[@danielc.3725]

OK, I got it, you're OK with the steps, That button on the right is the wrong button SIR, I'm sorry to say, the button that you want to PRESS, is on the left lower side across from your KNEE, says - "mph / km" on it, I pushed that one & it worked... 👍

[@Replicant9900]

Mine is in the same place as you say, but the model he's in is obviously different.

[@jeremyf.2706]

Because your model is probably different. Doesn't mean he's wrong. You probably had a split year with different options. It worked for me just fine and was where he said it was. So he was right initially. That's where most are on 2012 prius.

[@whome6081]

Thank you so much!! This worked perfectly.

[@KentPaul]

Finally a video that worked!

[@GerryDavidVA]

How often should the oil be changed on the 2012? I've heard 5000 and 10,000 with the synthetic

[@saLLy0608]

Thanks Brian, I subscribed and checking out the website .

[@runswithfish3830]

I guess Settings> Maintenance> Oil Life> Reset> OK would have been too easy and logical. Good job Toyota. We're resetting a maintenance light, not launching nuclear weapons.

[@marliseisrael3017]

For plug in make sure it is on Trip A and turn car off...press down on kmh/mph (it's on the left of the steering wheel under your gasoline button) and don't let go, then press the power button twice

[@davidcisneros7621]

Thanks sir 🙏

[@robertebertz9871]

He's right except you have to have mph switched to kmh which means holding the button a long time then keep holding it and shut it off then restart. the part that got me was how long it took to switch from mph to kmh its'like 30 seconds

[@eva9598]

Hi after I did this, my engine wont turn on anymore amnd the lights are flickering :( are those two related?

Sounds like the battery went dead. You’ll need to get a jump or the batteries on the way out needs to be replaced.

[@lisaball1701]

Don’t depress brake while holding km/h button and hold that km/h button until loading bar finishes!

[@vincentlenart1697]

@lisaball1701 thanks... i found the problem though. The screen has to be on the energy monitor screen for this to work. That's a crucial detail that's missing from this tutorial. I'm guessing most people just have that screen selected at all times? I already wrote a comment correcting this.
