How to Reset the Oil Maintenance Light on Honda Civic?

[VanLevi]

Power on the vehicle without starting the engine, press and hold the reset button on the dashboard for a few seconds, and observe the maintenance indicator on the dashboard. After the vehicle has been driven for another 5,000 kilometers, the maintenance light will illuminate again, reminding the vehicle owner to perform maintenance.

As a 10th-gen Civic owner, I've reset the maintenance light myself several times. First, power on the vehicle without starting the engine, then press and hold the steering wheel's right-side scroll wheel for 5 seconds. This will bring up the maintenance menu on the dashboard. Use the scroll wheel to select 'Reset Oil Life,' then press and hold to confirm - that's all it takes. Last time I did it in a parking lot and finished in just 3 minutes, much quicker than visiting the dealership. If your car has an aftermarket infotainment screen, remember to drive a few hundred meters after resetting for the maintenance light to fully disappear. The process differs for older Civic models, so check your manual to confirm button locations.
