How to Reset Oil Change Required Light on the Dodge Avenger

The oil change light in your Dodge Avenger is a maintenance reminder to help you know when it’s time to change the oil. If you don’t reset the oil change light, your light will stay on, and you won’t be able to tell when your vehicle needs an oil change. You can clear and reset the light with these steps.
