2002 accord EX maintenance required light flashing

[Pawl]

The maintenance required light comes on and flashes a couple of times and goes out. There are 54,000 miles on this car. Any ideas? Does it flash at certain mileages and then disappear later or is it something I should be concerned about?

On older Hondas "maintenance required" light comes on at certain intervals. On my Honda it is I think every 7500 miles as an oil change reminder.
Newer Hondas have an oil check computer but I do not know how it works.

Try to reset yours:

Turn your engine off.
Push and hold trip meter button.
Turn your key to ON (engine not running).
Wait for light to come off.

Hope it will work for you,
