I just bought a 2003 Honda Odessey with 47k about 2 months ago. The Maint Req'd light will flash a few times and then go off each time I start it. Is this because it's due for the oil change? Will this reset when I change the oil?

 

It will soon stayon indicating some maintenance is required. It could be an oil change or some other maintenance so consult the manual.

Turn it off:
