How to Reset the Oil Light on a Fiat Grande Punto

Model: Fiat Punto MK 3, Punto EVO, 199, Grandepunto - Years 2005-2018
Part: Service warning light

After changing the oil and filter on the Fiat Grande Punto, the oil light flashes, so we need to reset it. Turn on the ignition and press the accelerator pedal fully down seven times quickly. Release the pedal and wait exactly 60 seconds (timing is very important), then turn off the ignition. Turn the ignition back on and check that the light no longer flashes. As indicated, timing is crucial; if the light continues to flash, use a stopwatch and retry until you can adhere to the timing.

Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
