The oil change required light keeps coming on when I start it. I changed the oil about 350 miles ago oil looks good and full and it runs good. Does it need resetting each oil change? If so how?

Hello, I'm Danny,

Yes, the oil change light/reminder needs to be reset every time you/someone changes the oil. It's a program set to your car that turns on after a programmed mileage. I've attached the tutorial (below).

Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
