In case you don't know the procedure:

With the car off, push and hold the Odometer reset button
WHile holding the button Turn the ignition to ON (no need to actually start the car)
Keep holding the buttong until it blinks and goes off.

Sometimes you have to do it more than once. I have no idea why it doesn't work the same every time. But it seems to have a bit of an issue sometimes.

Then you'll see the same light in 7,000 or so miles.

you have to hold the button in for an additional 2 seconds after is has gone out. If you dont then the "maintance required" light will stay on, and you'll have to do it again.

You are also supposed to turn the ignition off
and let go of the reset buton at the same time
and then start the car right after.
