I just had the oil changed in my 2005 Ford Explorer eddie Bauer edition. The information Center keeps posting Oil Change Required. Where I have my oil changed, they do a pressure check and then crank the engine a second time tocheck the transmission. Ergo, I was unable to be in the truck to hit reset when the oil change hit reset message popped up. I know that you guys have probably answered this question until you're blue in the face but I'm new to the Forum. So, what do I have to do to get rid of the "Oil Change Required" message in the Info Center? Thanks a lot for helping me out.

 

Here's how I do it in my '02 EB. (Scroll down to the bottom of the page)

Mike,
It's slightly different for a 2005 but i did get it to work. My wife is very appreciative as this is her truck.
Thanks, a lot!
