The reset procedure is usually in the owners manual. If I recall it involves some action with the ignition switch and odometer reset button.

If a combo of all these whizz bangs met their claims you'd have to syphon gas out of your tank every second day and sell the excess horsepower on the third????

thanks Larry. I look on every page of the manual and could not find a reset proceedure. I have tried several combination of odometer button holding down and ignition switch turning and havent had any luck yet. I guess I need the exact sequence if anyone knows it.
Thanks a million.

Section 1-6, page 136 of your manual

(q) Engine Oil Replacement Reminder
Light
This light acts as a reminder to replace
the engine oil.
This light will come on when the ignition
key is turned to “ON” and will go off after
about a few seconds.
When you drive for about 7200 km (4500
miles) after the engine oil replacement,
this light illuminates for about 3 seconds
and then flashes for about 12 seconds
with the ignition key turned to the “ON”
position. If you continue driving without
replacing the engine oil, and if the distance
driven exceeds 8000 km (5000
miles), the light will come on after the
ignition key is turned to “ON” position.
The light will remain on thereafter.
If the light is flashing, we recommend that
you replace the engine oil at an early
opportunity depending on the driving and
road conditions. If the light comes on,
replace it as soon as possible.

The system must be reset after the engine
oil replacement. Reset the system by
the following procedure:
1. Turn the ignition key to the “OFF” position
with the trip meter A reading
shown. (For details, see “Odometer and
two trip meters” on page 125 in this
Section.)
2. Turn the ignition key to the “ON” position
while holding down the trip meter
reset knob.
Hold down the knob for at least 5 seconds.
The odometer indicates “000000”
and the light goes off.
If the system fails to reset, the light will
continue flashing.
