Default Reset oil life montor

Thanks to the lack of driving over the past few years, it's been ages since I've had to do this, and the 0 SP indicator just came on.

I've tried the process listed in the manual but no luck, but I thought there was something else involved which the manual didn't list?

The reset procedure in the manual seems to be wrong. See this post

Default Re: Reset oil life montor

Thanks, that still didn't work, but it might be something with the replacement ECM in my vehicle. I seem to remember following these steps to reset it with the prior computer.

Here are the steps in case anyone needs them:

1. Turn the ignition key to LOCK/OFF.
2. Press the instrument panel cluster stem until the odometer is displayed, then release the stem.
3. Re-Press and hold the cluster stem until the letters InSP are displayed.
4. Press and hold the brake pedal down, Hold the cluster stem down and turn the ignition key to ON/RUN.
5. The letters InSP in the instrument panel cluster display will flash.
6. Keep the cluster stem down for at least 10 seconds and then release the stem and the brake pedal when the message "new remaining mileage" is displayed.

Sometimes it takes several tries for it to work. . .
