Lightbulb Maintenance Light?!

Hey guys, I need some help. Just noticed today that my MAINTANCE LIGHT is on - it's ORANGE. I had a picture in my dash (of me and my boo) and didn't notice it was on (till I moved the picture today) - so I don't know how long it has been on. I have 17000 miles on my car. It runs fine. I had the oil done (not at the dealership though) about 2500 miles ago. Can I reset this light myself? My dealership is an hour away, and my life is really quite HECTIC right now...no time to really do it.

Anyone know how to do it? I have an 03 TLP.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

I think you have to turn your key to the I position in the ingnition.. Hold reset and select button at the same time for 10 sec... Then turn your car on and it should disappear... It comes on every 7500 miles.. If that doesnt work, its in your owners manual...

To reset the Maintenance Require indicator...

*Press & hold both RESET & SELECT buttons.
*Put the key in ingition in 3rd position(all the indicators on now, don't start the engine).
*Keep hold both RESET & SELECT buttons until the Maintance light goes off.
*Start the engine.


Hope this helps.
