how do you reset the maintenance light on a 2002 Honda Civic?

On most vehicles right next to the light there is a tiny hole you need to stick a paper clip into and push the button.But I'm not sure on a Honda.

I do this to my Accord 2000. Do this, before you start the car, press the same knob in the speedomete area, that you use to reset the milage counter, and keep it pressed. While that knob being pressed , start the ignition, the maintainance indicator will blink few times and then it will go off. This should take care of thisTo check, Turn off the ignition and restart it. The maintance indicator should remain off.

do not let anyone mess with your honda. call the dealer's service manager. he can tell you quickly what to do.you may be able to find the info in the manual that came with the car

you need to take it in to get the scheduled maintenance. The mechanics will turn off the light. The maintenance will help your car run better.
