Why does the Change oil light comes onafter i have aready changed the oil on my 2002 silverado?
The "change oil light" doesn't run off of the quality/quantity of the oil; it runs off of the odometer and the "memory" of the last time the "change oil light" was reset. In other words, if you changed the oil at 3,500 miles and reset the light at that time, the light will automatically come on at 7,000 miles as a reminder to change the oil. You can reset the light yourself in about 5 seconds. The "change oil light" doesn't run off of the quality/quantity of your oil. It runs off of a pre-determined distance from the last time the light was reset - presumably, the last time the oil was changed. For instance, if you change your oil at 3,500 miles, and the light is set to go off every 3,500 miles, then it will again go off at 7,000 miles, regardless of whether you re-changed the oil. Its just a reminder device. You can also reset the light yourself in about 5 seconds.

What can cause the change oil light to come on then go off?
change oil and filter. The amount of oil in the engine is probably right on the limit of the sump sensor. Therefore, driving up and down a hill may cause it to go on or off, or when the oil is hot and expanded it may go off and come back on when cooled back down.

Because you need to reset the light after you change the oil. Changing the oil doesn´t turn off the light automatically , you need to reset it. there is a very small push button on the dash board that has a label "RESET OIL CHANGE", with the engine off, push and keep pushing while you turn the key to power up the accesories but don´t turn the engine on. the light will go off after a second or so.

Why would the change-oil and low-oil lights stay on after you changed the oil in a 1999 Oldsmobile Intrigue?
I have a 2000 Intrigue, just got my first oil change. Almost immediately after that the "change oil light" has come on each time I started the car. I think it is just from the car keeping track of miles but it is disconcerting. Careful with the "low oil" light, Intrigues do go through a quart of oil or so between changes.AnswerThis problem happened when we changed the oil and the light was still on afterwards. If I remember correctly, I put the car in neutral and pressed the accelarator 3 times in a row and the light in the dash should go off. AnswerYes. in order to reset "change oil light" you have to depress accelerator pedal 3 time withing 5 seonds (with ignition on, engine off). The light will blink if you did it right.

So the "change oil light can go on after 3500 miles or 8,000 miles. After each oil change whether the "change oil" light is on or not, you should reset the oil life monitor. it is very simple but you have to the procedure carefully or it willnot work.Put key into ignition, turn the key to the "ON" position. let the car go through it's cycle of lights (norally lasts 3-4 seconds). Depress the accelertor pedal 3 times within 5 secnds and WAIT for the "change Oil" light to flash. Once it flashes 3-4 times it will go off. The oil life monitor has now been reset.
How do you reset the change oil light in a 2003 Oldsmobile alero?
Listed in your owner's manual. However, the reset pushbutton performs two functions. The first function is to find or select the change oil light. The second function is to reset the change oil light. So, when the manual says press the reset pushbutton, it means to press and release, press and release, press and release, ... and so on.... until the change oil light is selected. The change oil light is selected when it begins to flash on and off. Once the change oil light is selected by it flashing on and off, press and hold the reset pushbutton again in solidly to actually reset the light. Hold the reset pushbutton in until the chimes sound. This confirms the change oil light is reset and the light should go out.*Remember* before you even begin resetting using the reset button, the car must be in neutral or park or it will not work.AnswerIf you do not have an oil change reset button located on the drivers side inside the fuse panel. Turn ignition key to the on position (with engine off). Depress accelerator pedal 3 times. Oil change light should blink and you should here a beep, light will go out. Turn ignition key off.
