If you can do it yourself it should tell you how in the Owner's manual. I would imagine you should be able to do it yourself so [sm=icon_rtfm.gif]
Haha! I always wanted to use that one!
you know, by using that smily, you are now cool.

you were not before, but that, my friend, pushed you over the threshold.

welcome.

I already did that!!!![:@]It doesn't say anything because all it says is tell me I should take it to the dealer(which I did)when the light starts to turn on.it doesn't say 5#!+ about resetting it when your dealership forgets to do so!

why dont you take it back there? they should be able to do it very quickly if they forgot the first time.

Question how would I resetthe maint required lighton an 2004 ex coupe? I had it serviced but it won't turn off. It annoys me bc it blinks in yellow 4-5 times every time i turn on my car and keep thinkin something is wrong with my car...
It is in the manual, it's in mine.

To reset it, start with the car off. Press and continue to hold the odo/dash light adjust button in the gauge cluster. While holding the button, turn the key to the run position but don't start the engine. After 10 - 15 seconds, the maint light should go off for another interval.

i am at 156k miles right now, I think it is just due for a coolant flush and inspection of the PCV valve. What did you guys do when you got to roughly this mileage. I checked the wires, plugs and air filter at about 153k and I changed the oil at 155k.
