Turning off oil warning light

Car serviced and the oil service light came on after?

We just had our Ford Fiesta serviced, which included an oil change. Two weeks later, a message appeared on the central console: "ENGINE OIL CHANGE DUE NEXT SERVICE," and a warning light illuminated on the dashboard.

The dashboard warning light was a yellow oil can with a squiggly line underneath it. This light may indicate that your oil is contaminated with diesel.

You can turn off this annoying light and message yourself without needing to return to the garage (we accept no liability if there is a problem). Just make sure you don't need an oil change, as this could invalidate your warranty, and check that there is nothing wrong with your car.

To reset the oil change warning light

1. Turn on the ignition (not the engine).

2. Hold down the brake and accelerator for twenty seconds until the warning light goes off.

Simple when you know how! Hope this helps!
