As you approach the mileage for an engine oil change and filter replacement on the Ford F150, a light will appear on the dashboard to remind you. We will reset the module that handles this notification after the replacement is done. To do this, sit in the driver's seat, turn the key to the ON position to power the dashboard without starting the engine, fully press the accelerator pedal five times, then turn off the dashboard.

When you restart, the absence of the light will confirm that the reset was successful.
