Resetting the Service Light on a Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 6, MK 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Service warning light

Using the appropriate key, turn on the instrument cluster of your Ford Fiesta. Once the various lights are off but the oil change light remains on, press and hold both the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal together for twenty-five seconds. After doing this, release the pedals and turn off the ignition. Wait two minutes before turning it back on to check that the light has disappeared. Remember that this procedure should only be performed after you have actually carried out the regular maintenance, not before, to avoid issues with the engine and the vehicle in general. Good luck!
