Change oil light
Hello Monte Carlo lovers. This is my first post. I recently purchased a 2000 Monte Carlo SS. I need to know how to reset the change engine oil light. Also, does someone know the link to download owners manuals? Thanks! Drive safe!

RE: Change oil light
For the older monte carlos like mine, turn your ignition to ON but dont start it. Press the gas pedal three times quickly. It should go out. For the newer monte carlos, with the ignition turned to ON, hold theDISPLAY button on your radio until settings is displayed. Use the seek button to select OIL LIFE. Press NEXT until RESET is displayed. Press DISPLAY and the oil life will be reset.
Go to chevrolet.com and you should be able to download the manuals on the site somewhere.

RE: Change oil light
Did you even read my posts? BOTH of them told you what to do. I added in the pump 3 times thing because it DOES work on the cars without your radio and without the DIC under the gauges.
