To clear the change oil light on most GM cars, turn the key to ACC then pump the gas pedal 3 times.

In the owners manual. Hold the Trip/Reset button in for several seconds until it goes away.

I held down the trip reset button and then turned the ignition key to the "on" position. The light would blink after a few seconds and then turn off.

2. Push the TRIP/OIL RESET button located on the
instrument panel for 12 seconds.The OIL CHANGE
