Resetting Oil and Filter Maintenance Reminders

sofaonasock · 12-23-2009, 08:51 PM

Hello Friends!

I just did my 2nd oil change at 7.5k miles. I'm having trouble resetting both the oil and filter maintenance reminders. I'm able to go into the Maintenance - Oil/Filter - Reset Menu. From there, when I press the lower single square "Reset" button, nothing happens...

I've tried this with the door open and closed, with the engine on and off, and have even searched the forums and looked through the owner's manual!

Apparently, I was able to reset just the oil reminder when I did my first oil change at 1k miles.

...what am I missing?

Cheers!

Good, old-fashioned mile-keeping on a sticker under the hood works fine for me. I'm not too technologically inclined. Good luck with your resetting, dude!

I stopped by my local Nissan dealership and the service advisor guided me through:

Maintenance - Oil/Filter - Reset Menu. Press the lower single square "Reset" button, then press the upper double square "Set" button.

Tada!

Happy Holidays!
