do a search

it may come on sue to dirty oil. Exspeciialy prone to coming on around the time of an oil change. just hold down the 2 button next to the guage cluster, trip and reset button. then turn on car i tihnk or turn till guages engage and keep holding down the buttons then turn off car and the light should go away

When it flashes, it's a pre-warning. The light should be reset when the oil is changed (or scheduled maintenance is done). Between 6000 and 7500 miles since the time the light was reset, the light will flash for around 10 seconds after startup to warn. After 7500 miles, the light goes solid as a reminder that maintenance needs to be done.

It flashes to let you know the car is almost ready for a service. Once it goes on steady, that means your car is ready for the service. I personally don't follow that light, so whenever it flashes I reset it.

Directions on resetting it as well as the suggested services are all in your owners manual.

Unless you change it every 5K miles & the damn light comes on 2500 miles before you need it. I'd love to disable the thing. Anyone know how?

I just consider mine a mileage marker. I've gone another 7500.
Hold select reset buttons down and turn the key two clicks and watch teh light go off.
