In the clear plastic section of the instrument panel, there will be a small rubber grommett - remove the grommet and insert a long fine screwdriver to contact the micro switch in the instrument panel. this will reset the 100,000 km countdown.

Depends on what year yr Toyo is. I have a 98 100 series and it is all done via the ignition key and trip meter knob. Earlier models required the dash to be taken out and the reset button is located on the back of the dash panel. If you had yr belt replaced at a garage they should have reset the unit as part of the change.

what have you been driving around looking at the little orange light!! :lol: :lol:

The way troy said applys for all hilux's (upto 97 that i know of, after that i have never looked)

By the way SNAFU the light comes on for a reason, so unless you have replaced the t/belt in the last 100,000 k's then you need to change it!! :)

I got mine at 213000 and i didn't know if it had been changed or not so i changed it and then the light came on at 240000 so i did the reset button tricky thingy and "wulla" it went off.
