On a vz commodore dose anyone know how to reset to service light, I know it done throught the mode control on the dash, but when I get to confirmation part can't get passed that point, not the same as in a VU.

After holding the two arrow buttons down while you turn on the ignition, Hold down the set button for about 10s to reset the service.

Can be confusing for DIY; take chariot to techie; he/she will plug in the tech instrument and after a few "handshakes" that (along with many other options) can be easily reset. It's just a courtesy reminder and not actually a warning of impending doom — unless you get the "Check engine" lamp and multiple other warnings! :hmmm: I much prefer to see how things are done using the Tech2 instrument as the Mode UP/DOWN buttons procedure isn't very exciting...

im a mechanic and all you do is hold the two arrow buttons in on your dash control (ignition off) then while still holding them in turn your ignition/reds on and continue to hold them in until the dash display comes up with a reset request then hold the set button in until it beeps and your done... just remember if its coming up with a service schedule and you havnt serviced your car in a long time, its a sign from god haha
