Oil Change Reminder Lamp: Service and Repair




To reset the oil monitoring system to 100% after each oil change (approximately 10,000 miles [16,000 km] or 12 months) perform the following.





1. Press the SETUP control to display "OIL LIFE= XXX% HOLD RESET=NEW".





2. Press and hold the RESET control for 2 seconds and release. Oil life is set to 100% and "OIL LIFE SET TO 100%" is displayed.

3. While "OIL LIFE SET TO 100%" is displayed, if a lower oil life start value is desired, press and release the RESET control to reduce the start value. Each press of the RESET control reduces the start value by 10 percent.

NOTE: Oil life start value of 100% equals 10,000 miles [16,000 km] or 12 months. For example, setting oil life start value to 60% sets the oil life start value to 6,000 miles [9,600 km] and 219 days.
