Default Maintanence Required Light

Where is the reset button for this dumb light? I change my oil myself and i hate this stupid light. I can't find anything that looks even remotely close to a reset button. In my friends ITR it is a green button under the steering wheel. there is no buttons or anything. Anyone have any clue how to turn off this moronic light without resetting the ECU?

Default Not sure but.....

I believe that you have the key in the off position and you hold down the odometer reset button. Then you turn the key just short of turning over the engine and release the reset button. I think this is what I saw the tech do but it's definitely something resonably close to this procedure.....

Make sure the odometer is on the odometer and not one of the trip meters. With the key off hold it down and turn your key to spot after ACC once your odometer comes on it will show you some dashes that disappear one by one and I believe they all flash once and then it shows your odometer and your done your maintenance light has been reset.

It is really easy to fix. All you need to do is hold in the ODOMETER BUTTON and turn the key over two spots. This is when all the accessories come on. You will see some bars they will begin to disapear. Once they are gone you are good to go.
