If its a check engine light there is no button, unplug the battery for like 20 min, if that doesnt work, unplug the ecu also for like 20... that should do the trick but if its matinece it should be on the cluster, u gotta use ur key to push it in

if its the matenence required light at the top of the cluster, put the key in the ignition hold the trip reset button, and turn the key to on, and hold the button till the light flashes and co out, thats just the matenece light that comes every 15k or so when you need a service, i have to reset my sisters for her all the time, always calls me in a panic when it comes on. lol

Yes the car is under warranty. Why waiste time and gas to drive to the dealorship when i can do it at home. Plus they sometimes don't do it, and make you spend un-necassary $$ at unwanted services.

this happens to the CR-Vs at my work everytime around oil change time... it should say it in the manual... you put the ignition on the on position (don't turn on the car) hold the button that changes you milege for about 10 sec. then it turns off... check your manual just incase its different...
