Most of the foreign cars have a button in the fuse panel which can be pressed to turn off the oil change indicator light, if this is what you're referring to.

1. Turn on the ignition to "ACC" and hold the odometer button until the display reads actual mileage (not the trip "A" or "B") 2. Turn ignition switch off 3. Hold in the same button as in step 1 4. While holding the button, turn ignition switch to "ON" 5. The "MAINT REQD" light should then go off

For 2008 Toyota Camry + hybrids (which is a little diff then 07') this is my 2nd try to post so it's short version... Do the same steps pretty much but when pushing in the trip button, while pushing it in Turn it to the right and hold it there, no brake, push start button twice (x2) and on the 2nd time hold the start butt. down until it resets!!! Done :)

For the 2008 Camry you'll need to do the same except do this at TRIP A. Set TRIP A to 0.0, turn off then turn back to ON while holding the odometer button down. Continue to hold the ODO button until you see dashes at the bottom then it goes to 000000. The Maint Req light will go off.

We have a 2007 Toyota Camry that does not use a "key" but instead uses an "Engine START/STOP" button. When the RED TRIANGLE with an explanation point ! comes on a special advisory appears in the text window. The message "MAINT REQ'D" indicates the car has been driven 5000 miles since the last time it was reset. It is time for an oil change. To clear and reset this msg: (1) Be sure the car is OFF so there is no indicator light on the Engine Start button and do not push the brake pedal. (2) Press and HOLD the "odo/trip" button...continue holding until step 5 completes. (3) Press and Release the Engine Start button TWICE. (4) Display should say "RESET MODE" and flash or count several boxes. (5) Release the "trip" button. {Enjoy driving another 5000 miles, but do have the oil changed too. Both your engine and your wallet will appreciate the clean oil !!!]
