Service light stays on ... goes off after 2 minutes 700 90

posted by  someone claiming to be k c on  Sat Nov 25 17:09 CST 2000 [RELATED]

It happened three times today, right after you start her up.

Had the fuel regulator replaced about a month ago.

Nothing seems out of the ordinary.

Started to check the archives, and FAQ....just got lost in a MAZE!?!

Thanks in advance...

Either the car is new to you, or the dealer has been servicing the car and resetting the light before the 5000 miles/8000 km mark.

You'll find it described in the owners manual. There's a rubber plug in the clear lens next to 0 MPH or 20 kM/h that you pull out of its hole (unless someone already pushed it into the hole). Then take a small screwdriver to press the button all the way. Don't be surprised if it's hard to push - it's made to break free with a snap.

Service light is just an oil chang reminder. All it means is you've gone 5000 miles since it was last reset. Remove the rubber plug on the front of speedo near trip meter reset button and press the button under the plug.
