Default Anyone know how reset the SES light?

Anyone know how to reset the Service Engine Soon light. I think it came on because its telling me to change the oil, but im running on 20k mile AMZoil. Ive seen it done before but i forgot. Its something like turning the ignition to the ON position and pressing on the accelerator 5 times. Anyone know?

Ive had the car dyno'd before so im hoping its not failing. HELP

SES is exhaust related

the change oil light you turn it off by turning the key to the on position mashing the gas 3 times to the floor and holding in the trip reset button till it goes out

You just have to mash it to the floor. No messing with the trip reset. Allthough that is another way of doing it.

exhaust related? Well it used to come on before because i took off my MAF sensor screen off and Banks 1&2 were runing lean so i had it tuned. It came off and Its been runing great . then that damn light came on a couple of hours ago. Its still runing fine tho. What the hell could it be. How could it be exhaust related?
