Most modern cars have what are commonly called Service Lights. Small lights on the instrument panel can now alert drivers when it is time for service.
Most vehicles do this through a computer calculating how many miles have accumulated since the last service.
However, some vehicles use sensors to gather this data. We have compiled a listing on the procedures to reset the reminder lights on your car, if it is equipped.
If you do not see the reset procedure for your vehicle:Reference the owner's manual that came with your vehicle. Reset procedures are often described in depth with illustrations:
turn the key to the accesories position. pump the break pedal 3 times. the check engin light should flash. then turn the key to the off position and then start the car. the light should reset.
I am not sure if that works I have a 2004 Odysey and I did this and it worked.
While the car is off, push and _hold_ in your Trip meter button, then while still holding that button in... turn your ignition key to _On_ (not start). Wait until light goes out or you need a hair cut... which ever comes 1st. LOL, seriously it should go out in about 15 seconds or less
For a 2007 Honda Odyssey: Turn your ignition to the On position. Press and hold down the trip meter button for ~10 seconds (until the display blinks). Release the trip meter button. Press and hold the trip meter button a second time for ~5 seconds (until the display shows your oil at 100%).
