Maint Req light stays on.
my 2007 FJ had the oil changed at 4800 miles but the light stays on, is there any procedure to reset this light ?

YES! If you read your owners manual that came with your car when you bought it it will tell you how to do this.

here is how to reset the light: with tthe keys in the off position (no lights on the dash and no radio on) just press and hold the trip odo reset button. then turn the key to the on position, but dont start the truck. keep holding the button until the lines go away (you will know what im talking about when you see it). then the light is cleared for the next few thousand miles or so.

Thanks Guys , It worked.
I was stuck on page 102 where it only said to change the oil and nothing else.
