After completing the service or oil change on the 2016 Ford Transit, you need to reset the service light. Turn off the ignition and then press the accelerator and brake pedals simultaneously.

Turn the ignition back on after three seconds, and the display will show "Oil light ready to reset"; then release the pedals and the oil light will be reset. If the light comes back on after the reset, you may need to visit a garage for a diagnostic check.

Possible reasons for the reset failure include issues with the control unit, a punctured oil sump, or a malfunctioning tank sensor.
