My "chang oil" light has come on. Well, I'm going to change the oil today. Is that light going to go out, or do I have to reset something? Can't imagine the car knows when the oil gets changed.(I'll be very impressed if it does):thumbs:

In the fuse panel on the drivers side(inside)
Turn your key on with out starting the car and press the reset button let off and press and hold the button again till in dings and voila it should go out

This is also in your owners manual

Do as Botlefed said to change your light but please do not go by this light when changing your oil!

It's in the manual.. if You did not get one with the car, you can find them cheap on Ebay...

The procedure posted by the people above are correct.

The Brake Method (works on all late model gm's)

- Key in "on" Position (car not on)
-Pump brake pedal to the floor and all the way back, three times
-youre done
