how do you reset the service indicator message?

[Shadeyman]

Pretty easy to do if you have have the right gear.

For those of you that can't do it, if your near Wolverhampton your welcome to pop round and use my VIDA/DICE software and interface to do the rest.

Is there a way to set a service interval, or is it always set by the factory?

Sweet. Thanks all.

Car with lamp: Release the button when service lamp start to flash.

Car with message: Release the button when the triangular warning sign start to flash.


To check
Turn off the ignition, turn it on again and start the engine. If the service message or lamp not have disappeared, start from the beginning again.

I was also getting the "045" message using the other method followed by the return of the dreaded "service needed" message (even though it's just been serviced, my man forgot to reset it or didn't know how). However, I tried Ron XC90's method and it worked first time on my '06 XC90 D5SE.

Thanks for the info.

Thanks for that, used it on my 08 S60 d5.
As you said, the triangle is still flashing when you release the odometer button.

Is there a similar procedure for clearing the check emissions system (engine symbol) light on the dash?
