Hey there folks! Today, we will be working on this Chevrolet Equinox and resetting the oil life light after an oil change. So if you’ve never done an oil reset, this is a great place to learn how to do it.
I think this will work in a Chevy Equinox and other models like the Pontiac Torrent. And also, this probably works in other types of vehicles with a change engine oil soon light indicator in their instrument cluster.

Warning! Please note your vehicle model. This tutorial will hold true for the first, second, and third generations of the Chevrolet Equinox (2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 model years).
This is the first way I recommend before you try other methods. This is the fastest method and works on most older Chevy cars as well as newer ones. So let me do that right now.
As you know maybe the older Equinox you press the gas pedal three times with the key on engine off, but for this one it’s different. It’s all digital so you can access the custer menu by using the diectiional pad on the steering wheel.
Time needed: 3 minutes
Alright, we have a 2020 Chevy Equinox and just did the oil change. So here we reset this engine oil life with the up-level display. So what you’re going to do is:
First, push this START button until it’s running
Once the engine’s running you’re going to go ahead and press on the ◄ or ► arrows until you get to the i for INFO
Then you’re going to scroll down with the ▼ down arrow until you get the OIL LIFE
Next, you’re going to press the ✓ checkmark button to get reset option
After that, it’ll say are you sure you want to reset? You hit the right arrow to go to YES and press the checkmark button and the oil life is reset at 100
So that’s how easy it is to reset the oil life light in this Chevrolet Equinox. I hope this helps because you might not have the manual that tells you how to do this and so that’s why I made this content. Thanks for reading, and be safe out there, guys.
