How does one turn off the 'change oil light' on a 2002 Alero after the oil has been changed?

Hi:
With the engine off, turn the key to the run position. Next, press the gas pedal to the floor three times and wait. The light should flash indicating it's reset.

Let me know if this works for you.

Merry Christmas,
Joe
