My Dad has owned the car since new, It has the electronic dash. An area that says "service reminder" came on. I have dones several searches and have not found an answer. Anyone know what it means? How to make it go away?

Too many cars, too many parts, too little coin, too little space to work in, too little time left to make it all happen!
Update: down to one ride, still too many parts, a little more jingle in the pocket, gaining space, and it's going to happen this year!

Thanks, it is a Mitsubishi 3L. Low mileage, just passed a government emmission test a month ago.

Some of those in that era were reminder lights that tripped on at a designated mileage on the odometer... did not mean that anything was wrong, just time for service.

Those things back them were a pain.They are just a reminder not a check engine lite.Programed to come on at certain milage etc.Some had a reset button some had a battery that had to be changed.Been a long time since Ive worked on one.Google search for reminder lite for the car and it should tell you how to reset it.Rocky

I spent a couple of hours trying different search engines. The info was not to be found ; at least for me. I will try every day to get an answer; just can't spend hours a day.

It was either 89 or 90 where they started making it that in order to reset that lite (message) you had to do it with the scanner. I will try to double check as I cant remember off the top of my head which year it changed. Up to that year most had a little plastic box (about 2" x 2") behind the dash that had to be reset. Usually needed a paper clip to push a tab in the little hole in the box and some also took a new 9 volt battery. It is as was said just a reminder lite to check the emission systems. Ron
