When should the oil change reminder light be reset according to service consultants?

The oil change reminder light should be reset when the oil is changed and when the oil life percentage is adjusted because this ensures that the vehicle's maintenance reminder system reflects the true status of the engine oil. Resetting the light after an oil change is crucial since it signifies that the oil has been replaced and the engine is ready for the next service interval. Additionally, adjusting the oil life percentage allows the system to accurately track how much oil life is left based on factors like driving conditions and vehicle usage.

By performing both actions, service consultants maintain an accurate record of the vehicle's maintenance schedule and help prevent premature oil changes or neglecting to change oil when it's due. This comprehensive approach fosters better vehicle care and can contribute to improved performance and longevity.
