The maintenance required light is flashing yellow on my 2003 CRV. I now have
8300 miles on it. I change the oil every 3333 miles regularly. How do I
turn off the MR light? Is there any real reason to have to bring it into the
Dealer and pay them $110 for a 10,000 mile oil change. Thanks

The answer to this any many more questions, can be found in your vehicle's
Owners Manual. But (because of the season), just turn the ignition switch to
the run position and hold the reset button on the dash down for ten seconds.
Light is reset.

Brian,

You're very kind (because of the season). I hope Keland gets it. And if
Keland doesn't get it:

Keland, RTFM!

Let me guess:

(a) you bought this car new, and

(b) you've never, ever, ever opened the owner's manual.

And, possibly

(c) you don't even know where the owner's manual is.
