Set the car to ON and press the gas pedal all the way down three times and it should turn off.

I'm trying to turn off my change oil light and I have tried the turn the ign on and press the gas pedal down 3 times to reset it. BUT it don't go off. Also read somewhere that there was a red button on the fuse box in the glove comp...nope not on mine. I'm kinda stumped. It is a 98 GP GT. There is a change oil light by the trac and windshield washer fluid light. I know nothing is wrong because the light was off when I got the car and just came on last week. Anyone else have a 98 with light like this? I don't have a owners manual with the car:-(

Make sure you do it slowly. I did it while watching the oil life percentage on my PT scanner. I did it somewhat quickly and it didn't work. But, if you time it right so all three take about 4-4.5 seconds total (which is actually kind of slow when you do it), it will reset.
