And now for a helpful answer. I have a 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the dealer forgot to reset the oil life timer last checkup/change. I searched through the manual for a long time before finding the answer to this question. It's not under the oil change section, it's not under the instrument lights and warning section either. It's in the section called Driver Controls, specifically on page 76 (in my manual) between System Check and Units. Here are the simple steps you take to reset the oil life warning: Turn on the car. Press the Setup button twice, the display should say OIL LIFE = xxx% HOLD RESET = NEW Press the Reset button. That should do it. Dougyfish You have a 2008 vehicle, and must have received an owner's manual with it. This information is in that owner's manual.
