How exactly are you doing it - know doubt its correct, but just want to ask!

I just did mine and with the Vette "Off" (not running), I turned it or switched it to the Accessory mode by holding down the lower half of the ignition switch (until you get all dash lights On), I then cycled the Trip monitor over to Oil Life and held the Reset button till it read 100%

If for some reason the above does not worked or has not worked for you (or the videos below) - you could clear everything out by removing the negative cable for at least 15 seconds and reinstalling it and then proceeding from there - it's odd you are having this issue but sometimes stuff happens and this can be your last resort should you try everything else -

Let us know how it comes out and what you ended up having to do -

Here are a couple of videos:


Thanks,Matt
