2014-2022 Infiniti Q50 Oil Maintenance Light Reset Guide

Time needed: 3 minutes

Alright, in this section, I’m going to show you how to reset your oil maintenance light on a 2017 Infiniti Q50. I’ve already actually done it, but I’ll do it again. So what you’re going to want to do is:

1. Switch the ignition over to the on position

   If your car has a Smart key button, press the START button two times without stepping on any pedal

2. Push the HOME button

   Then you’ll want to utilize the secondary Intouch screen located below your navigation screen and press the HOME button to bring you to the main menu
   

3. Go to the SETTINGS

   Next, we’re going to go to the SETTINGS located on the right, so we’ll touch that

4. Tap in the METER icon

   When we get into the settings icon, depending on your vehicle’s equipment you should see the meter this particular car is navigation. So there’s going to be some extra icons in here that you know other vehicles may not have but for the time being, we’re going to select the METER icon

5. Find the MAINTENANCE

   After that, we’re brought to another sub-menu. What we’ll look at here and as you can see the second item is MAINTENANCE, so we’ll select it

6. Select ENGINE OIL

   From there, you’re going to notice three categories oil and filter, tire, and other, and then of course the right-hand side we see a bunch of denotation markers for mileages and then little bars that fill up. So in order to reset the reminder since we have the maintenance oil reminder, we’ll go ahead and select ENGINE OIL

7. Select RESET DISTANCE

   At this point, you can see for this example the distance has only been set to a thousand miles. So since the bar has already exceeded the thousand-mile marker, the reminder that you see inside the dash has now illuminated. To clear it out what we’ll do is we’ll just go ahead and select RESET DISTANCE
