Here’s the procedure to reset the oil light on Acura vehicles

Turn the ignition to position II, but don’t start the engine.

Press the SEL/RESET button on the steering wheel repeatedly until engine oil life is displayed

Press and hold the SEL/RESET button for more than 10 sec­onds. The “remaining engine oil life” reset mode will show on the multi information display.

Select RESET by pressing the INFO up/down button. Next, press the SEL/RESET button to reset the engine oil life display. The engine oil life will reset to 100.

Turn the ignition off and start the engine to verify the indicator has been reset.

Note: Models equipped with a keyless access system have an engine start/stop button instead of an ignition switch. Push the start/stop button once without starting engine. That’s the equivalent of turning the ignition switch to position II.
