With key in the off position hold trip indicator while turning the key to the ON position. DO NOT START the car and keep holding the trip button. You should see some dashes where your trip usually is. let them go until it flashes zeros. It should be self explanatory after this point.
If this does not work try turning car to ON position then goto trip A then turn car off and do the above again. If this does not work Try starting on trip B like you did with A. It should work on odometer or trip A. honda and toyota are very close to the same like this. I always get them confused. Worst scenario your trip meter is reset to zero

Turn the key on.

Observe the odometer

Is it displaying ODO/total miles traveled? If not, depress the trip reset button until ODO is displayed

Key off

Press & hold the trip reset button, keep pressing it until advised to release it.

Key on

Observe the odometer display

you should see 5 dashes, then 4, then 3, then 2, then 1, and then 5 zeros, and then the mileage you started with.

Release the button.

You are done,

If you do NOT see 5 dashes, 4-3-2-1, set the trip meter to "trip 'A'"
and retry as instructed above. Some Toyotas use either method.

Most Auto Part stores like napa or kragen will read the malfunction code for you for free. Once you get that done post the code so we can give you a better understanding on your concern. Oh if your light is flashing please don't drive it that means you are doing immediate damage.

SOURCE: Malfunction Indicator Lamp

Take your car to your local autoparts store and have them pull the codes - this is free at most stores. Post the codes when you're done. This can be caused by anything - even as simple as not tightening your gas cap (you should hear the clicks - it doesn't damage the cap).
