Honda Fit Engine Oil Light Reset 2001-2008
The Fit is a cleverly designed tiny hatchback with a cult following. It offers easy access and has an amazing amount of interior room for such a small car. The rear seats can be folded flat, sliding under the front seats, or the cushion can fold up against the backrest, creating a deep, flat floor that can accommodate bulky items or a tall plant. While quite slow to accelerate, the Fit feels responsive, with a smooth and willing engine and agile handling that makes it fun to drive. The ride is choppy and the car is loud, so consider it as an urban runabout rather than a long distance commuter. Expect a 32 mpg overall fuel economy. The Fit came well equipped with standard power accessories, antilock brakes, and curtain airbags, but we would steer you toward a newer Fit for its added safety, or a larger, more substantial car.

Resetting the Engine Oil Life Display
Your dealer will reset the displayafter completing the requiredmaintenance service. You will see‘‘OIL LI FE 100 %’’ on the informationdisplay the next time you turn theignition switch to the ON (II)position.

2.)Press the Select/Reset knob repeatedly until the engine oil life is displayed.
4.) Press the Select/Reset knob for another 5 seconds. The maintenance item code(s) will disappear, and the engine oil life will reset to ‘‘100.’
Important Maintenance Precautions
If you have the required service done but do not reset the display, or reset the display without doing the service, the system will not show the proper maintenance intervals. This can lead to serious mechanical problems because you will no longer have an accurate record of when maintenance is needed.Your authorized Honda dealer knows your vehicle best and can provide competent, efficient service.
