Service lights reset

[Cale 36]

Hey everyone.

This has been in this forum before but I cannot find it, so I'm sorry to bring this up again

I have had my car serviced as you do and in the instrument display the service indicator light is in the yellow (sometimes red) and the "oilservice" and "inspection" lights are on.

I understand that the proper reset tool on trademe is about $100

Does anyone have a link or any information on how to reset these lights?

Many thanks in advance.

Cheers Andrew.

I'm a bit anxious to try it as i do not have a "fused jumper wire".

What do you think?

A bit of wire is fine - just make sure you don't put them in the wrong holes.

God knows how many times i've just used an old twistie tie to jumper mine. If you get the wrong holes it's not too bad, just make sure the car isn't in gear as you can trigger the starter motor if you get it wrong

Just did mine,was really bored whilst waiting for dye to dry on parcel tray so just did it.

Easy as...hopefully itll stay on and I wont have to replace the batteries.

Cheers Andrew for that.
