    I did my 10,000 mile maintenance myself but cannot get rid of the warning light. How can I do this? Many thanks.

    When you enter "Maintenance Reminder Light Reset" into the search box you'll find the following:

    If you change the oil yourself, or the dealer forgets to turn the light off, rather than taking it back to the dealer, do the following:

    Turn the power switch IG-ON and make sure that the ODO/TRIP meter is displaying the odometer.
    Turn the power switch OFF.
    While pushing the ODO button, turn the power switch IG-ON.
    The reminder light will flash until the reset is completed.
    The reset is complete when the reminder light turns OFF. Release the ODO button.
    After the reset, the ODO/TRIP meter displays as a set of zeros for 1 second, then displays the your normal odometer mileage.

    I think us seniors need to get together and organize the KB.
