you use the button that resets your trip odometer to reset the maintenance light.



with the key in the ignition but not turned on, hold the trip reset button in with one hand. then, while holding the button in, turn the ignition key to the ON position so that the lights on the dash come on.



continue to hold the reset button in and watch the maintenance light. it will take about 15 seconds for the light to go out



when the light goes out, turn the ignition key OFF and then release the trip reset button.



your light will be reset and come on in about another 5000 miles to remind you of the next service

Be careful if your car is equipped with anti theft bec disconnecting battery may cause car not to want to start later.
The answer is right in your manual. At least in mine anyway. Hold down the trip meter button, turn the car to on, wait about 20 seconds, start the car, and let go of the button. Light is reset until the next mileage interval.
well... you need that machine thingy... but before you try that... unplug your battery for like 5 minutes and plug it back in... that should work.. but if not you can take it to auto zone, they check your light for free and im sure that they can clear it
Yeah, disconnecting your battery then reconnecting it should work. If you take it to the dealer they are gona charge you like $80 just to reset it. The only thing is your radio will reset too so make sure you have the code for it.
