Default DIC - Resetting Oil Life Remaining

After my annual trip to the dealer for an oil change on my 01, there was a message on the DIC "Oil life remaining 100%". I tried to clear the message by holding the rest button, but now the message says "Oil Life remaining .....".

How do I clear the Oil life message and get back to the screen that displays the (default) odometer setting?

Thanks,
Mordi

If it reads oil life 100% that isn't a message to be reset, you just need to toggle back to your preferred display. So I believe you would just tap the Trip button until it goes back to displaying the Odometer reading, or maybe the OD reading is under Gauges, I forget now... Either way cycle through the proper display until you get to the OD reading.

They reset it for you but left it on the oil life screen, just use the buttons on the right of the dash and cycle to where ever you like

The owners manual is a wonderful thing to read and use.
