To disable the oil change light on your 2009 Ford Escape, check out this video: https://www.Youtube.com/watch?v=jZbeZX_FcDM Having quality oil is crucial for ensuring your engine runs smoothly. Problems with your oil can arise, potentially causing your engine to fail. Signs of bad oil include a noxious burning odor, which should be addressed promptly to prevent any serious damage, such as an engine explosion. An engine knock may also occur, along with decreased gas mileage. It's essential to replace your oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to maintain optimal engine performance and prevent potential issues.
To clear the oil change reminder on the 2009 Ford Escape, start by turning the key to the on position (just before fully starting). Then, press the setup button until you see "oil life x*x% hold reset = new" on the display. After that, hold the reset button for a few seconds and then release it; this should reset the reminder. You'll then see a message saying "oil life set to 100%".
