oil reset button

[Houndguy]

A few of you may know this answer. I can't find it and the Kymco forum can't answer it for me.

I recently changed the oil on my 08 Kymco Xciting 500. Every 6 KM or so the oil change light comes on. I change the oil and it is reset.

This time I changed the oil before the light came on (I figured I was close). It came on 1 day after I changed it and I can't find out how to reset it.

The owners manual does not have the answer. Kymco forum doesn't have the answer.

Ideas?

:thanks: in advance

Did you try disconnecting the battery for an hour or so, so everything resets itself?

Well that's just it. My bike had a lot of work done over the past few months (from the "incident") and I figured that the oil change timer - for lack of a better word - was fudged anyway. So I was surprised when it came on.

I'll figure it out. Swearing at it did not help. I'm going to try hitting it with a large hammer next.
