try resetting oil life indicator this way. if not it may be a bad cluster which is pretty common




Correct restet procedure for 05 Honda Accord... With key OFF, press and hold odemter/trip button in instrument cluster. While holding, turn ignition key to on position. After holding for about 10 secs the maint. light will reset. Tested and approved
