My son is in the navy and on deployment and I have his car he has an 2004 acura rsx type s and the maintenance required light is on he has changed the oil and it usually goes off but it didn't this time can anyone tell me what else it could be thank you for your help

 

I believe you have to turn off the key, hold the trip odometer button in, then turn the key on while still holding the button for like 10 seconds. Check the owners manual, but I believe this is correct....

By the way - ex-navy guy here - tell your son I said "Hello, shipmate!!"

 

that sounds about right

 

thank you and I will the check engine light comes on too its a cylinder 3 misfire he has changed the plugs and coild /wires it stayed off a long time but came on the other day i reset it and it came back any idea on this

 

Plug wires may be in the wrong firing order when he changed them.

 

Are you on crack? K Series engines "don't" have plug wires

 

Honda went to coil-over-plug in the early 2000s

 

Probably just a bad plug.
