i just got my maintenance required light on my 00 s2k. is there a button underneath the dash to turn this off or do i have to take it in to the dealer. i know my integra had a button for this. just curious if the s2000 has one. i searched and couldn't find it. thanks -goody

 

put key in

hold down trip button

turn key to on but do not start car

continue holding the trip button

after 20ish seconds, the maintenance light shuts off

Have maintenance performed

 

thanks, will try that tomorrow. and i will be making an appointment at the dealer also, since it is still under warranty. thanks again.

 

how many miles do you have on your S? dealer usually costs too much for maintenance. you live in doylestown, i'm in montgomeryville which is just a town over. Depending on where in doylestown, i could be 10 mins or 30 mins away. If you need help, just pm me

 

umm 60000 knowing the maintenance light came on??? no?? lol

on your gauge cluster. one of the two rubber buttons.

 

nishant- my s has 17,000 miles on it. i got the light turned off. thanks for your help

 

no prob, 17k? nothing is really needed, hope you changed your air filter at 15k

 

The maintenance light comes on every 7.5K miles? Wow. But that makes me feel better about the light coming on before putting it away for the winter (first year having it).

Are there any inexpensive computer units to read the S2K? I've seen a few for other types of cars that can be purchased for ~ $30 but is specific to a car model.

OBD2 reader for check engine lights?

 

The "Maintenance Required" light is a reminder to perform routine maintenance. It is based on mileage and not any sensors in the car. The "Check Engine Light" is for problems where you would need the scanner or mechanic.
