Default main. req. light comes on.

hey guys i've had my integra for 8 months now and when i start it up that light comes on and blinks and still blinks for about 5 seconds after all the others go off. what does it mean? i already looked in the manual and it didn't help. my car's got 56500 miles on it a 97 gs, thanks. peace

The maintenance light means that it's the car internal time for a oil change. Under the steering wheel there should be a square green button. I think you just press and hold it for a bit then it goes away for another 8 thousand or so miles

if you change the oil will it automatically reset or does it just come on every 8000 or so miles?

there should be a button you need to hold down for a few seconds. it is a little tricky to find but it is under the dash near the stearing column. that should shut it off . I believe the manual tells you what to do and exactly where it is, cause that is where i read it
