2001 SEAT Ibiza OEL indication on dash

Electrical problem
2001 SEAT Ibiza 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 156000 miles

I changed the oil and filter sometime after the indication came on, I cannot reset the [OEL] indication. A few times when driving the glow plug light came on and the engine cut for just a second, theneverything was alright. Tonight it did it again, but now when I switch on the ignition there is no glow plug light and the engine [diesel SDi] will not start. After cranking for a few seconds the oil pressure light flashes and there is a beep in time with the flashing. It occurs to me that the computer has decided that the engine oil and filter is well overdue changing and now it won't start until I get the warning re-set. How do I do that?
