    It's the one that reminds you to change the oil, *not* Check Engine.
    How do I make it turn off? (Besides waiting 2 minutes)

    I pulled out the rubber plug on the face of the instrument panel.
    I got a skinny pen refill so I could poke the button inside.
    I've tried:
    - Single poke with the engine running.
    - Single poke with the key on, engine not running.
    - Single poke with key off.
    - Holding the button for 20 seconds, engine running.
    - Holding the button for 20 seconds, engine not running.
    - Holding the button for 20 seconds, key off.
    - Holding the button while turning key to "on".
    - Holding the button while passing through "on" and starting engine.
    - Poking button 5,327 times with engine running, while cursing loudly.
    I'm out of ideas.
