2016-2019 Chevrolet Cruze

With Steering Wheel

Time needed: 3 minutes

Here we have a 2017 Chevrolet Cruze and will show you how to reset the oil change reminder as you can see it’s on display. We’ll be using the dash screen along with the buttons on the steering wheel. So let’s try to do it.

Switch the key on
First, pull the key out, put it in, turn it to the second position without starting the car
Go to the 🚗 CAR tab
Then you’re going to have to go ahead and scroll through on the 🚗 CAR tab here with your arrows ◄ ► button

Scroll to the OIL LIFE screen
Next, use the ▲ up or ▼ down arrows to find where you’re at the OIL LIFE screen
Press and hold this ✓ check button
Once you’re there, as you can see down here it says to check to reset. So we’re going to press and hold this ✓ check button for a few seconds
Select YES
At this point, it’s going to verify that you want to make sure you reset it so you don’t do it accidentally. So we’re gonna go ahead and hit the ✓ checkmark again for YES and there we go we have now reset our oil life monitoring system to 100%

With Signal Stalk

If you have a more basic model, you can navigate through one of the left stalks. So let me just show you what it’s doing.

First insert the key and put the ignition on
Then go ahead and hit the MENU button and you’re gonna set it off to the 🚗 car tab

Next, you can gonna rotate the ▲▼button to scroll through and you’re just gonna get the OIL LIFE
Now right here where it says SET/CLR you’re gonna press and hold it down
When it asks you if you want to reset, you go up to YES and press the SET/CLR button again

Alright, guys, that about does it for this content. Anyways, guys, this is my first post of 2022. We’re off to an amazing start so far, and I hope you guys had a great new year’s day.
