rollingthunder1994 Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Hi All, I have a 1994 STS I changed the Oil recently. The oil life indicator reads 63% oil life left. I hit the reset button and three XXX showed over the display when o released the reset button the read out still shows 63%, it would not reset to 100%. Does the oil life indicator have to go down to a certain number before you reset it? The Oil life indicator does work because i've been driving it and i have been seeing the numbers move. The reason why i changed the oil so soon is because my transmission went bad on me, and the car was sitting for 2-months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caddyman Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 you have to hold it down until it reads 100%, most likely you did not hold it down long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonA Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 On mine, you hold down the reset button, the XXX will show, and then a few seconds later, the 100% will show. Have no fear -- just hold the reset button down longer. The Oil Life Monitor is a great feature and it does work well.
