Default Reset Switch for the 7th Gen Accord

Does the new 2003 Honda Accords have a reset switch to turn off the "Maintenance Required" light in the dash panel? I know most old model Acura Integras have them underneath the panel below the steering column but I can't seem to find it. It would sure help, since the light is programmed to stay on after every 10,000 miles. This means that I'd have to service it at the dealership just so they could reset the light. I sure don't want to pay an arm and a leg for a simple oil change and fluid check at the dealers, when I could reset it myself, after every 10,000 miles. Please give me some info on this matter if anyone knows. THanks a lot everyone.

The "maintenance required" light omes on every 6500 miles and to reset it press and hold the reset button on the dash while turning the ignition on (do not start the engine). Keep holding the reset button and the light should go away after 10 seconds.

This doesn't seem to work for me. Any other suggestions?
