Resetting the Maintenance Required Light

Hey all,

How do I reset my Maintenance Required light on my 05 Limited with Push Button Start. Had a DIY Oil change done, so need to reset. Thanks!

The instructions are buried on page 153 and 154 of the Owner's Manual, and copied below.

Reset the system after oil change bythe following procedure:

1. Turn the engine off with the odometer reading displayed. (For details, see
“Odometer and two trip meters” on page 143 in this Section.)

2. Turn the ignition switch to ON while holding down the trip meter reset
knob (for Smartkey, press the Start buttion 2 times with foot off the brake pedal).

3. Hold down the knob for at least 5 seconds. The odometer indicates “000000”
and then the maintenance light turns off.

If the system fails to reset, the light will continue flashing.
