maintanence light is on????
 

how do i turn my maintainence required light off??? only 7500 miles on my xb!!!

any thoughts????

epic-

when is the last time you changed oil?
it might be the scheduled oil change warning

:silly:

1. Turn the ignition key to the "OFF" position with the odometer reading shown.

2. Turn the ignition key to the "ON" position while holding down the trip meter reset knob. Hold it for at least 5 seconds. The light gose off, and the display shows zero for 1 second and chanes to the odometer reading.

So in Stuped turms befor turning the car the the on posetion push the botton on the dash in and hold it down the turn the car to the on position... (don't turn the car on..) thats it.

hope this helps......

Its exactly waht the car manual says to do..... so if any one says other wise i would not bolive them.. :rofl:

thanx dude

my maintainence light came on also...and i'm juss uner 2000 miles from my next oil change, however i am over my 10,000 miles...did my light come on for a 10,000 mile service check..or should i juss take my car in for the next oil change and have them do both at the same time?

:eyebrow: no prob bud and um................. about that light if they dont reset it when u get ur oil canged it will come on..... i got my first oil chang at 4000 they did not reset it it cam on at 5000.....so ya i would say just reset the light and if it dose come back on no need to wory just take it back to the dealer ship and tell them there might be a problem..... ur under worenty any way!!!!!! :eyebrow: :silly: have fun u guys!

Check your gas cap. If you don't have it screwed on tight enough, or if it's not straight, the light comes on. This happened to me.

Also, the light is scheduled to come on every 5000 miles because that's the regularity with which you are supposed to change the oil. So whenever you cross 5, 10, 15, etc., it will come on.

mine is off-sync from my oilchange, since i do mine at 3K and i did my first one at 1K

The Check Engine light came on when I did that. It took it a few days to reset itself.

It's important to reset it yourself when you get your oil change, at it seems to off 5K after reset. But the above description to reset it works perfectly.

When you take your car to the dealer to have the oil changed they should reset it for you.
