How do I reset the oil service reminder after an oil change, on my 2012 Ram 1500. (5.7 Hemi)

Owners manual page 275 -- 1) turn ignition switch to on position(do not start engine)-- 2) fully depress accelerator pedal slowly three times within 10 seconds -- 3) turn ignition switch to off position --- note if message illuminates when you start the engine the system did not reset. Repeat the process.

what do you do if this process refuses to reset the message?
See above: " Repeat the process."
I have done the process several times and the system will not reset. What can I do
Make sure key is turned to the "run" position. I tried a couple of times with it in the "ACC " position and nothing changed. When I tried in the "RUN" position it worked.
Thank you great advice
Thanks,very easy. I just did it on my 2013 Ram Express!
You guys are awesome. Worked first time on my 2017 Ram.
Worked on my 2009 2500 make sure your key is turned to run (where all the warning/indicator lights come on)
Ok thanks very helpful, just got a 2012 Ram with no owners manual Iam lost!
Just worked on my 2018 Dodge Big Horn! Thank You!!
Wow that was easy just did it on 2011 ram 1500
I tried this before in the past and it worked. I just tried it and was not successful. I disconnected the battery for a few seconds and started the engine. The light did not come on the next time I started it. Hopefully that did it. Now I gotta fix my radio stations again.
Worked perfectly in the “run” position first time after failing to do so in the “ACC” position a few times. Thanks for the great information in the comments!
I've tried 20 times on my 2018. I read about door closed and radio, fan off. I will let you know.
I have a 2016, 1500 eco diesel. To reset the oil change indicator I simply go to the oil life screen on the dashboard, then simply push and hold the right arrow on the steering wheel for about 5 sec and it will complete the reset. There is also a small message on the oil life screen telling you to do that for the reset. Same procedure as you do in order to reset your A & B trip millage.
I just took a pic of my 2016 Eco diesel with reset instructions on the screen
Worked for my 2013 Ram Sport. Thanks guys!
