How To Reset Perform Service On 2018 Ram 2500

Alright, buckle up, buttercup! You're about to become a Ram 2500 whisperer. We're diving headfirst into resetting that pesky "Service Required" light. Think of it as giving your truck a digital spa day.

Let's Get This Show on the Road!

First, find the ignition. You know, where you usually stick the key? Just kidding... mostly! You'll need the key for this adventure, but don't start the engine yet – just turn the key to the "Run" position. This is like waking your Ram 2500 up gently.

Next, look for the accelerator pedal. It’s the one you usually use to make that beast ROAR! Give it three pumps – nice and steady, like you're playing the drums for your truck.

Now for the Magic Button Dance!

This is where things get a little... interpretive. Look for the "OK" button on your steering wheel. It might also be an "Enter" button. Press and hold it.

While still holding that button like you're clinging to a winning lottery ticket, pump the brake pedal three times. Yes, just like before, but with the other foot!

Keep holding that "OK" (or "Enter") button! You're doing great. Almost there!

Turn the ignition off. This is like telling your truck, "Okay, relax. Spa time is over." Now, turn it back on to the “Run” position, but don't start the engine!

Check the dashboard. Hopefully, that "Service Required" light has vanished into thin air, like a bad date after you mention your extensive collection of vintage hubcaps. If it's still there, don't panic! Try the whole process again. Maybe your truck is just a little stubborn today.

Resetting the Oil Change Indicator

Okay, so the regular service light is banished. But what about that nagging oil change reminder? Fear not, my friend. It's even easier than parallel parking a semi.

Turn the ignition to the "Run" position, like before. Don't start the engine – we’re just trying to have a conversation with the dashboard.

Navigate to the "Vehicle Info" menu using the buttons on your steering wheel. Look for something like "Oil Life" or "Oil Change Required." Every Ram 2500 is a unique snowflake, so the exact wording might be slightly different.

Once you've found it, there should be an option to reset. It might say "Reset," "Yes," or even something cryptic like "Execute." Press and hold the "OK" (or "Enter") button until it resets.

Poof! Your oil life is now at 100%, ready for another adventure. You’ve basically given your engine a new lease on life... digitally speaking, of course. You still need to change the actual oil!

Congratulations, You're a Ram 2500 Guru!

See? That wasn't so bad, was it? You've successfully reset the service indicators on your 2018 Ram 2500. You're practically a mechanic now!

Now go forth and conquer the open road, secure in the knowledge that you are one with your truck. Just remember to actually, you know, get the oil changed when it's due. This reset only clears the light, it doesn’t magically replenish your oil! You are an amazing driver. And you did amazing things!
