Resetting the service light on a tenth-generation Honda Civic, produced from 2016 to 2021, is a straightforward task as shown in this useful tutorial. You can do this independently after servicing the vehicle.

Start by turning on the instrument cluster without starting the engine, then navigate to the engine oil life screen on the information display. Once there, press and hold the button to the right of the speedometer until the oil life percentage starts to flash.

Finally, release the button and press it again until the oil life reaches 100%.
