How do I reset /turn off the "Maint Req'd" indicator?
The dealer would like me to bring the car in to reset it.

The procedure in the owner's manual does not work.

History: I had the dealed change the oil 10'000 miles ago. Since that oil change I have changed the oil myself two additional times.

I believe the ignition has to bring up the odometer reading that is "trip A" designated, then you hold down the trip button and turn the key on. I just did one a few days ago like this.
