Savana 1/2 Ton Van V8-5.3L VIN T (2003)
Oil Change Reminder Lamp: Service and Repair
GM OIL LIFE SYSTEM - RESETTING
This vehicle has an engine oil life monitor. The engine oil life monitor will show when to change the engine oil and oil filter. This will usually occur
between 5000 km (3,000 mi) and 12500 km (7,500 mi) since the last oil change. Under severe conditions, the indicator may come on before 5000 km
(3,000 mi).
Vehicle should not be driven more than 12 500 km (7,500 mi) or 12 months without an oil and oil filter change. The system will not detect dust in the
oil. So if the vehicle is driven in a dusty area, be sure to change the oil and oil filter every 5000 km (3,000 mi) or sooner if the "CHANGE OIL
SOON" indicator comes on. Reset the oil life monitor when the oil has been changed.
RESETTING PROCEDURE

2. Fully press and release the accelerator pedal 3 times within 10 seconds.
3. If the "CHANGE OIL" light flashes for five seconds, the system is reset.
4. If the light does not display for five seconds you will need to reset the system again.
