To clear the maintenance reminder on your 2001 Honda Accord, it's a quick and easy process that only takes a few minutes. Simply insert your key into the ignition and turn it to the ON position. Press and hold the Reset button on the dashboard. After that, switch the ignition OFF and back to the ON position. Keep holding the Reset button for an additional 10 seconds. Once the light goes off, release the button. Turn off the ignition and start the engine to confirm that the light is no longer illuminated.
Press and hold the reset button, then turn the car off and back on while continuing to hold the button. The system should reset in approximately 10 seconds, but if it doesn't, repeat the process. Make sure not to start the engine during this procedure.
Press the RESET button before turning the key to the ON position (wait for the beeping noise and other dashboard lights to come on to confirm you're in the ON position). Keep holding the button until the MAINT REQ'D light turns off, which should take around ten seconds. That's all there is to it.
To clear the maintenance required light on your 2001 Honda Accord, follow these steps: Insert the key and turn it to the position just before starting the car. Hold down the mileage reset button on your dash for 10 seconds while counting to ten Mississippi. Keep holding the button as you turn the ignition off, then turn it back to the same position while still holding the button. Count to ten Mississippi again. The maintenance required light should disappear. Turn off the ignition completely, release the button, then start the car. The maintenance light should no longer be on. Good luck!
