You must be using the reset button on the DIC (?). It takes more than a quick push of the button to reset to 0%.

The other manner which is more positive is to turn the key to on without starting the car. Then pump the gas pedal three times in quick succession. That's worked well on GM cars since the '90s.

I'm glad it worked for you. It's the only way I've ever done it. It's more simple than the button pushing, kind of ol' school.
