How do I reset oil life light?

[boomike]

I had my oil changed today at a Firestone dealer and they left me to figure out how to reset the oil life light on my LX. Can someone explain how to do it? It's listed nowhere in the big Honda owners' manual...at least I can't find it. Thank you.

Reseting the Engine Oil Life Indicator: Owner manual, page320:

1. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
2. Press the SELECT/RESET knob until the engine oil life indicator is displayed
3. Press the SELECT/RESET knob for about 10 seconds. The engine oil life indecator and the maintenance item code(s) will blink
4. Press the SELECT/RESET knob for more then 5 seconds. The maintenance items code(s) will disappear, and the engine oil life indicator will reset to (100)


For touring models... Please check your manual. I am too lazy to type the whole thing here. Hope this helps. Good luck

Thank you, hpham. Yes, it's right there on page 320. I can't tell you how many times I went through the manual and somehow missed that. (It's not listed in the index.) Anyhow, it worked and I've flagged that page for future reference.

Glad I could help.
