With the key in the on position (engine not running), push the gas pedal to the floor 3 times.

Turn the car to "on", scroll thru display to "oil life remaining", and press and hold reset for 3 seconds. This is the way i reset mine.

Key on, engine off, press the gas peddle to the floor three times within 5 seconds is the way I do it. All GM vehicles reset this way.
