indicator system. TheOil Change Duemessage will
display in the EVIC for five seconds after a single chime
has sounded at the start of each ignition that an oil
change is due. The engine oil change indicator system is

Unless reset, this message will continue to display each
time you cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position. To
