Really quite simple and is documented in your Owners Manual.

Open drivers side door.
Remove fuse panel.
Put key in ignition an turn to "ON" position (do not start).
Press the "RESET" button once (located inside fuse panel)
- Change oil light will flash -
Press the "RESET" button once more and you will hear a chime.
- Light will go off -
Key off the car, replace the fuse panel and you're all done.


Another way to do this, is to turn your key to the "on" position..very important-do not actually "start" the car. Put the gas pedal to the floor three times real fast, like within 5 seconds. Wait a couple seconds, and you'll hear the chime...reset done.

Is that quote for real?? I've never heard that before. Maybe I'm just gullable. It's interesting if nothing else. I wonder if it really works.

turn to ON position and pump the gas pedal 3 (or 5) times. Same effect. :)
