To reset the service light on your vehicle is a straight forward procedure. Ignition off , Hold down the left dash button with the 000 s on . Whilst holding the button turn on the ignition and watch the display count down to 0 . Turn ignition off then on again and there you have it. Magic. Obviously this should be done in conjunction with a routine service to insure your car is safe reliable and legal .
I second that, as I was shown how to do it. Follow it, VEry simple instructions.
Have your key in the ignition, but off. Well make sure its at trip A before you start this.
Next, press the button, but leave it pressed….
Now put the car into the “on” position….
The indicator will show a bar like it was counting down, wait till that finishes and it all starts to show 0000miles or whatever it is. And let go.
Your done.
This is how you do it on a MK4 Mondeo, worth a go:-
1. Close all doors.
2. Turn the ignition key to position II.
3. Simultaneously press the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal and hold for a minimum of 15 seconds.
4. The oil change reminder indicator will turn off. This confirms that the reset procedure has been correctly completed.
