How do you clear a mainteance reminder?

I plan on changing my cabin filter (08 Civic). How would I get rid of the reminder associated with that mainteance?

The answer is even in your manual! Hold down the trip meter button, turn the car to on, wait about 20 seconds, start the car, and let go of the button. Light is reset until the next mileage interval.

ASK LATER, SEARCH FIRST! This has been answered a hundred times. All you have to do is turn the switch to "ll" and hold down the trip button till it goes off. You don't have to crank it, mine just went off.

Re: How do you clear a mainteance reminder?

no the light is not the same for all hondas and not the same to re set for all hondas. the light is programmed to come on every 10k miles give or take a few. and depending on what year you are driving there are different ways to turn it off. Im a honda tech i see these stupid lights in my nightmares.
