If autozone showed no codes...

WHICH light is lighting up?

SES (Service Engine Soon)
Check Engine (Check Engline (this may be service vehicle.... don't remember)
ABS
etc.....


which light exactly is lighting up?

The SES is red... the check engine (may be the service vehicle... ) is orange.... if this one is lighting up then it's not something autozone can scan...

also.. where are you located, what kinda car? what year car?

we're not psychic here

Yes a light will come on to let you know to change the oil. This could be the SES light, I cant remember. When you change the oil, hold in the trip reset button for more than 10 seconds, this resets the counted miles for the oil change too.

also I belelve the harder you hit on the engine the soonther the change oil light will come on, ie, could be 3000 miles instead of 5000 miles for example.
