Question Oil Change Indicator

I have a 2004 Silverado, I change the oil every 3000 miles, the message center continues to display a message "Change Engine Oil", I can not find anywhere how to reset that message? IF you have an idea, I would appreciate your help!

Thanks in advance.

Re: Oil Change Indicator

This is correct on 99-02 models. Probably the same for later models.

Re: Oil Change Indicator

Scared me the first time it happened on my ride as I had just changed my oil 750km prior. I remember reading about the reset here and it fixed the problem.

Re: Oil Change Indicator

it is very true.
You can read all about it in your owner's manual.

We seem to answer this question every three months or so oh well, no stupid questions, right?

Re: Oil Change Indicator

It works for 99-present models. It's not a lie, its in the manual.

In the September 2005 issue of GM Techline for GM employees, the instructions have been given to them also. I think the techs were not resetting the oil life monitors either......
