FYI-The change oil light did not come on. I'm just changing the oil on my own.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Mine wouldn't beep either. The first two oil changes it worked just like mentioned in the manual. The third time it didn't. Just wouldn't beep. I was thinking it may have to do with my aftermarket stereo (this is the first oil change since I installed it). I bought the GM interface and all. Everything else work, door chimes, etc, just no beeps after the reset. I'm going on the assumption that it reset, I just didn't get a confirming beep. Guess I'll see when I get my next OnStar report. Do you happen to have an aftermarket radio?

I do have an aftermarket head unit. I used the GMOS-01 interface and have all the chimes, etc. That must be the cause. I'll just keep records of when I changed the oil I guess.

Thanks

With the engine off and the ignition on, press the accelerator pedal to the floor 3 times within 5 seconds. That is not in the manual but it works on my H3 A mechanic friend turned me on the that. Easier than messing with the DIC.
