On my 2001 Grand Am ..... I turn the key to ACC, press the reset button....located on the left side of the dash, (where fuses are,take off the cover and there is a red reset button) press it once and when the change oil light starts blinking hold the reset button until it turns off. This will reset the light. Direction should be in your manual under Oil Change section. GOOD LUCK!!!

Oil Life Monitor Resetting When the system has calculated that oil life has been diminished, it will indicate that an oil change is necessary. A CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message will come on. Change the engine oil as soon as possible within the next 1 000 km (600 miles). It is possible that, if driving under the best conditions, the oil life may not indicate that an oil change is necessary for over a year. However, the engine oil and filter must be changed at least once a year and at this time the system must be reset. If the system is ever reset accidentally, change the engine oil at 5 000 km (3,000 miles) since last oil change. To reset the Engine Oil Life System, do the following: Turn the ignition to ON, with the engine off. Slowly fully press and release the accelerator pedal 3 times within 5 seconds. The reset is complete when the chimes sound and the CHANGE OIL lamp goes out. If the lamp stays on and no chime is heard, repeat the reset procedure. Turn the key to OFF. If the CHANGE OIL lamp comes back on when the vehicle is started, the engine oil life system has not reset. Repeat the procedure

Each vehicle tends to be different. But try this-
Ignition ON-engine Not running-press the gas pedal to the floor 3 times. Should reset. Good Luck.

easiest way is to disconnect the negative battery lead from your battery for about 10 minutes

You can do it by disconnecting the battery or go to a shop and they can do it as well.
