How to turn off timing belt light in LC after 150K,kms

Hi
I replace the timing belt in my 2001 LC 4.2l diesel at 147, 000. But as soon as the speedo clicked over 150,000 the timing belt light came on.
Anyone know how to turn it off without going to Toyota dealers?

Many Thanks...........Cheers...

Yep!

Its a a zillion dollar exercise that only a trained technician can do by using a tool that cost many thousand hours and dollars in R & D, along with a technology that can only be described as Revolutionary, Inovative and Exciting.

Thats what the experts would have you believe anyway. (ROFLMAO)

By the way I am only refering to the 'turning the light off' thing, not the changing of the belt.

Just follow the advice in the nominated previous post/s and all should be OK.

If you want a copy to give to your mechanic just let me know and I can fax him a copy.
