Hi josephyandell,

Maintenance Required Reset
1998-2002 ACCORD
1. When distance driven since maintenance required indicator was reset is less than 6000 miles, the MAINT REQ'D reminder light will illuminate for 2 seconds and then go out when ignition switch is turned to ON (II) position. When mileage is 6000-7500 miles, MAINT REQ'D indicator light will illuminate for 2 seconds and then blink for 10 seconds when ignition switch is turned to ON (II) position. When mileage exceeds 7500 miles, MAINT REQ'D light illuminates and stays on while ignition switch is in ON (II) position.
2. To reset MAINT REQ'D indicator light, turn ignition switch to OFF position. Push and hold the SELECT/RESET button and turn ignition switch to ON (II) position. Continue to hold button for more than 10 seconds or until MAINT REQ'D light goes out.
