Reset maintenance minder

hello,
purchased a 10 sh-awd 6pd manual a few months ago with 130k miles. After a bit of research, I went ahead and did timing belt, serpentine belt, trans fluid, transfer case, rear diff, and engine oil.

I searched and and couldn’t find if it’s possible to reset the transfer case and rear diff maintenance reminders... any ideas?

Sorry I did not specify, I had no maintenance lights come on in the first place. I changed all the fluids because I was unsure if the services had been completed.

then do that reset (above) the set when it appears, pretty sure it just mileage based . I just ignore it anyways I have my maintenance schedule, Acura has theirs.

As far as I know, the only way to manually reset the maintenance mileage counters would be to use one of those external OBDII Honda Interface Module diagnostic units like they use in the dealership.

Otherwise, you'd just have to wait until the reminders eventually pop up and reset them from the steering wheel as usual.

downside of buying used is you can’t be sure someone didn’t just skip the maintenance minder.... the jobs weren’t too bad

When I buy used, I just assumed the worse. So If I bought 2013 TL used - All filters, plug ( yes plugs), radiator, brake fluid & pad inspection (however you can tell ), transmission, trans-axle and rear diff would be changed however that is just me. That would just be a nice weekend, little random tracks on Bluetooth speaker, a cold one and maybe a little Cope with a little car maintenance. Course my wife thinks I like my creeper a little too much where I will just doze off early morning on it.
