    I don't believe they had that light back then.

    Are you taking about the maintenance indicator in the middle?

    The one that turn from green to red?

The service interval "light " has nothing to do with emissions or a problem with the car . There is a rectangle slot on the dash cluster you just use your key and press it and it just resets the counter
