Re: Maint Req light (dodge-honda)
no it is not the CEL.
it comes on after every 6k miles if it is not reset.
big red search link, upper right corner will tell you how to reset it.

For your 99 Accord you press the odometer reset button before you turn the key on. Continue holding the button for maybe 20 seconds after turning on the key. The lamp will flash & eventually go out. This is explained in your owner's manual.

I do not have an owners manual and I did search, hence the confusion......

Re: Maint Req light (dodge-honda)
JimBlake was right. But it's the reset button on the right side of your instrument cluster, That will remove the maint light. Also don't call it the CEL light, It is actually the MIL in proper auto language. (Malfunction indicator lamp)
