Does anybody know how to turn off the "Maintenance Required" display in the instrument cluster? Mine came on one other time and the dealer turned it off using some "smoke and mirrors" technique he was not willing to share.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hold down trip reset button, turn key to on while holding button down. Continue holding button down for approx. ten seconds until light goes out. No smoke; no mirrors.

The 2000 Owners manual states the directions incorrectly.

My maintenance light came on the other day once again letting me know its about that time to get my oil changed. Before I would just get the message letting me know what my remaining oil life is at. This time, there is a letter "A" with the number "126" next to and and the "15% (oil life remaining)." Does anybody know what that means?
