How do you clear the service light on a S60 T5 2003. Please can you help.

What?! They want $1700 to clear a message?!?
If they want even $20 to clear a message, don't walk, RUN away from them FAST!
Are you sure they aren't talking about working on the vehicle to fix it?

Clearing a message should be FREE or almost free!

its not a defective problem it is a reminder to change the oxy. sensor you can clear this buy removing the positive cable for five min reconnect stat engine. the best solution is to take the car to the nearest parts store like auto zone will check the codes and will provide asst to the oxygen sensor replacement . see the oxygen sensor helps maintain proper gas and air ratio to provide you with the best gas mileage 14.7to1 ratio in these times the money you spend to replace the sensor will save you in gas money in the long run plus you are helping the environment thanks for the question Lee

Close all doors.Turn ignition key to position 1.PRESS AND HOLD trip reset button,immediately turn ignition to position2,keep trip button held untill trip is reset to 0.A yellow warning light will show when it is time to release trip button.Release within 4seconds ,a bleep will be confirm reset.Before you start reset, do not reset trip,If trip has been reset to 0,turn ignition to position 2 hold reset for 10- 15 secs untill previous reading is shown,then start reset.

1. Turn the igntion to position I
2. Press and Hold the Trip Odometer Reset Button
3. Turn the ignition to position II and hold until the triangle with the ! mark inside flashes (yellow)
4. Turn ignition off, then back on to confirm reset accepted.

Here's a quick check list for most common cost of SRS / Air bag problem.

Dirty contacts on driver and passenger seat belt buckles

Dirty contacts on seat belt connectors (under seats)

Dirty contacts on driver and passenger sides weight sensors (under seat)

Seat covers

Weight on passenger seat
(Example: grocery package trigger SRS / Air Bag light on the way home.)

I recommend you to pass an vacuum over the contacts and use CRC electronic parts cleaner to rule out connectivity problem.

I DO NOT recommend disconnecting the negative battery connector to clean the code(s).

Without the code(s) the dealer will takes "BILLABLE" time to reproduce the problem.

The dealer (or whoever you took your car to) forgot to reset the maintenance reminder light. Take it back and have them do it.

Hope this helps.

Turn the ignition to position 1 Push and hold trip reset while holding. Turn to position 2 hold trip reset till the service light flashes 3 times and then release. You should hear a beep to let you know it is reset. It might take you 2 times sometimes. If you have the message in the text window the little triangle in the center of the speedo assy. will flash. Also another trick to help you is when the milage returns the light should be reset.

key off, push in and hold trip odo, turn key to position 2 ( all dash board lights are now on) DONT START the car, KEEP the trip button pushed in, start the car IMEDIATELY the service light starts to flash, then release the trip odo button. Sometimes takes a couple of goes.
