How to Reset Maintenance Light on a 2014 to 2019 Toyota Highlander | O'Reilly Auto Parts |

Skip to content

The maintenance light on your dashboard is an indicator that reminds you when it’s time to service your vehicle. On your 2014-2019 Toyota Highlander, the maintenance light may appear when it’s time to change your oil, rotate your tires, or change a filter. Maintenance lights are based on the mileage since your last service, and aren’t used to indicate any immediate problems like your Check Engine light. If the maintenance light is on in your Highlander, it’s likely your vehicle is due for its next oil change.
