    I have an 03 Accord LX with 8,000 miles and the Maintenance Required
    dash light just illuminated.

    Is there an inexpensive way I can extinguish it without purchasing an
    exorbitantly priced scanner?

    Get out your operator manual and read it. It is usually in it.....

  3. There's a guy named Manual, out in your garage. Ask him.

    Or you could look up netiquette, which dictates that you lurk a bit
    before asking questions.

    Or, you could (GASP!) crack open the owner's manual of your shiny
    $22,000 toy and see just how it operates.

    Nah--why should you do that? You know how to operate a car, right?

    Right.

    (Oh, but there's that pesky question about that little yellow light on
    the dash...)

    My Prelude requires a special tool to reset the light -- a ball point
    pen....

    Now I know why elmo_shagged_in_the_ass is so nasty when it comes to this
    question........ cause he drives a rusted out 11+ year old crap and is
    obviously jealous of all these new car owners.

    How to turn off 'Maintenance Required" light:

    1. Hold trip/reset button on dash
    2. Turn key to "ON" or start engine
    3. Hold button til light goes out

    Get him HHR&M. I knew I'd see you on this thread.... good job as always.
    Thanks for the smile.

    I haven't seen you in a bit. I like the "and Morons" it's good to see you
    have expanded to include more people.
