2004-2022 Chevrolet Express Vans Oil Change Light Reset Guide
This tutorial will hold true for the first generation of the Chevrolet Express Vans (2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 model years).
Gas Pedal Method
- First, turn the key forward without starting the car
- Then step on the ACCELERATOR pedal three times and you’re gonna notice that the oil light gonna start flashing
- Once it start flashing I think it was like two or three flashes I believe two of them the light goes off
- Now if we start the car and look at the dash this oil light is gone
DIC Button Method
Time needed: 3 minutes
So this is another way to set the oil life in a Chevrolet Express, as well. This time, we’ll use the DIC button on the left side of the screen. So let’s get into this car to try to do it.
- Turn the key on
Take the key and turn it to the on position without cranking up the engine
- Find the OIL LIFE screen
So now we’ll go ahead and go into our Oil Life. So if we come to the dash and this third one it has a picture of the car with an i. You need to press that until you get to the Oil Life screen
- Hold in the ✓ checkmark button
Now to go ahead and reset this we’ll hold the ✓ checkmark button and while holding it we’ll actually see the oil life go back up to a hundred percent and you’re done
So that’s how you reset on this car. If it does not work because you have to do this multiple times, the computer might not have its kind of flimsy the way it works, but keep trying it. Thanks for reading, and be safe.
