Default Re: change oil light (davds96)

1) turn key on , do not start
2) press Eng/Met button , within 5 sec, press again
3) press Gauges button ,light will flash, hold until flashing stops, change oil light will go out and be reset

on a 96
1. Turn ignition "ON" but do not start engine.
2. Press the "ENG/MET" Button and release, then, within 5 seconds, press it again.
3. Within 5 seconds of step 2, press and hold the "GAUGES" button. While the button is held,
the "CHANGE OIL" indicator will flash.
4. Continue holding the "GAUGES' button until the "CHANGE OIL" indicator stops flashing and goes out, indicating successful completion of the reset cycle. If id does not successfully reset, turn the ignition "OFF" and repeat the procedure from step 1.
