Try this procedure;

1. Turn the ignition key to the "On" position, but do not start the engine.

2. Press the "INFO" button until "ENGINE OIL LIFE" is displayed.

3. Then press and hold the "INFO RESET" button until "100" is displayed.

4. Turn the ignition key to the "Off" position.

5. Start the vehicle and confirm that the oil life has been re-set.

Let me know if this procedure did not work, or if you require any further assistance.

I just got my 2003 Cadillac deville..any everything was great..about a week after I got the car I took it Thur the car wash and out the blue the service engine light came on...what can that possibly...

A service engine light means it's time for an oil change. That light needs reset after the oil is changed. The computer senses the miles drove automatically and says "change my oil, it's been 3,000 miles" A CHECK engine light means it has to get a scan done. Change the oil, it will be fine. It is suppose to do that. Let me know if this helps you.

My 2003 cadillac deville-the service engine soon light came on and stayed

On a lot of cars the light is reset when you get an oil change, air filter etc. It's overdue for a "look see". You can always go to advance auto and borrow the code reader for free. Plug it in under your dash and will read and reset any codes

My 1998 deville has a new battery, new alternator,oil changed and new filter and it sometimes goes dead as I am driving it. Oil light comes on. Have any ideas what this might be?

OK, the oil light going on means that the oil and filter should be changed again and the 10w30 oil should be used.

The alternator may be defective.

Need to reset the oil life on my 1998 cadillac deville. The gas peddle thing did not work for some reason. Help

Press the information button as many times it takes to get the oil life to show up. Then hold down the reset button until the oil life changes to 100%. This may take at least 10 seconds or more.

Change oil light stays on.

  1. Turn the ignition key to the RUN position.
  2. Display "ENGINE OIL LIFE" or "OIL LIFE LEFT" by pressing the "INFORMATION" button.
  3. Press and hold the "INFO RESET" button until the message shows "100".
  4. Turn the ignition OFF.
Hope this answers your question. All the best!
