The video in question shows how to reset the maintenance light on a Ford Fiesta car. Get into the car, insert the key into the slot and turn it to the ON position, then turn off the engine and turn on the dashboard. Press and hold down both the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal at the same time; keep the pressure on both pedals for at least fifteen/twenty seconds.

At this point, you will see the message "service: oil reset in progress" on the display, followed by "oil reset complete", then release the pedals and turn off the dashboard. Turn on the dashboard again to verify that the light has disappeared.
