Turn key to "ON" position (NOT START). Press gas pedal smoothly and all the way to the floor 5 times. You'll need to do this in about 5 seconds. Light should go out. You may have to do this a few times but that's how it's done...Start car to double check.
Good Luck.

I have a 2001 buick regal the oil light is on as well as the washer fluid light are these the same prob or seperate issues. someone told me to change and flush the radiator fluid it will fix the lights
First thing to do is add washer fluid, second thing would be to check oil level, and add if needed, and if it's up to proper level, consider an oil change and filter if not done recently.

Change oil light on 96 roadmaster estate wagon. please help.
If you don't have the owners manual most of them were you turn on the ignition to run but do not start the car. Now push the gas peddal to the floor 3 times quickly. The light should start to flash then go out. Turn off the ignition and now start it the light should stay out if it comes back on there is most likely a problem in the ECM or wiring.

I need to change my fuel filter on my 1996 buick roadmaster
Well the good news is is that this is a very easy repair that will take only a few minutes. The fuel filter is located under the car beneath the driver side rear door. You don't need any special tools. I beleive that there are two bolts that hold the filter and that the lines are held on by clamps. I would have a small bucket handy as a little gas will spill out when you take the lines off. write back and tell how it goes.
