Maybe from the exhaust changes? Might not be anything.

Isn’t that the you need an oil change light?

Nope, 3k miles til that. It may be some sort of maintenance light, but it used to mean a code was stored.

Can you use Sync to do a vehicle health report? That usually worked.

Nope. I have Torque Pro, but it said codes were clear

Did you at least try resetting the oil life monitor? I bet you it’ll go away!

The rule of thumb I’ve heard is if it’s not flashing, it’s the oil change reminder. If it’s flashing... good luck.

Ah, so Ford follows the Apple product life cycle.

How does one reset it?

I’m not sure if you have an AP or not, but here’s the process. If you don’t have one, skip the first and last step.

1: Uninstall AccessPort

2. Turn ignition on (push ignition button, but do not press the clutch in)

3. Depress brake and gas pedals 100% (light should go off after a couple seconds)

4. Count to 30

5. Start the car just to double check the light doesn’t come back

6. Power down

7. Reinstall AP

It did work! Though I did it wrong and brought it to the dealer. They did it right. Found out about a car meet while I was there.
