Last Updated on December 2, 2021 by Nick
Hello, sunshine! How are you? In this post, we’re going to be resetting the oil change or service light in this petrol engine Ford Mondeo (2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022 model years). This is a short of job you can do at home yourself.
If the engine oil life is less than 5%, you’ll see the Oil Change Required Light appear on the dash. Whenever I do an oil change on my car, I’d like to reset the system that way, and I always know exactly how many miles I have on this oil. So let’s go inside and reset the oil life.

2007-2014 Mondeo MK4
In this section, I will show you how to reset the service oil notification in the Ford Mondeo. This is the Ford Mondeo MK4 which was manufactured from 2007 to 2014 models. So let’s get right to work.
- First, make sure that your bonnet and all doors are closed otherwise this most probably won’t work because sometimes it gives you an error message to tell you that everything’s open, so shut everything
- Then sit in the car and what you need to do is put your foot on the BRAKE and the ACCELERATOR pedal at the same time
- As you hold them, you press the START button so now they won’t start the car
- Keep hold it and you’ll see Oil Reset in Progress, so just wait a few more seconds until you see Service Reset is Completed
- Now you can take your feet off the pedals and start it up so there no more service light

- Click on OIL LIFE RESET
In this menu scroll down to OIL LIFE RESET and hit OK

At this point, you’re going to press and hold the OK button and you can see the lines going across there so that’s been reset successfully
