I just fixed this problem on an '88 ram 100...the dealer gave me this printout...if it's anything like mine- open glove box all the way to expose under dash- there is a blue plastic module on the wall side. it is mounted on a tab...you can just gently slide it upwards and off...on the top is a very small hole that leads to a push button switch. With the engine running, run a very small screwdriver into the hole to depress the switch- turn off engine...that's all there is to it.

What do the REQD light mean on my dashboard of my 1993 Dodge Dakota 3.9L Truck
it means when the maintenance light is on
The Maintenance Required Light is not the same as the Check Engine Light. The Maintenance Required Light is telling you that there is scheduled maintenance that needs to be performed. It may mean it needs an oil/filter change. To find out what needs to be done look at the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual.
Just found out that it must be reset at the dealership with a diagnostic computer
The check engine light comes on when the ECU detects a problem with the emission system. The maintenance required light comes on when some maintenance is required on the vehicle such as an oil/filter change.
