Not quite sure how to do it manually, but if you spend the extra couple of dollars to go to a Acura dealer they will reset all the warning lights on the vehicle.
Time for an oil change
All you have to do is turn the key in the ignition to "power on" (without starting the car) while holding the "reset" and "select" buttons on the instrument panel. Hold for several seconds. the next time you start the car, the maintenance require light will be gone.
Put the key in the ignition without turning. Push the odometer/speedometer reset button and keep your finger on it while turning the key on accessories. Wait a few seconds and light should go off.
instructions are in the ownwers manual.
The 2003 Acura TL runs on premium unleaded (required).
The 2003 Acura MDX runs on premium unleaded (required).
The 2003 Acura NSX runs on premium unleaded (required).
To reset "MAINTENANCE REQUIRED" light, turn ignition off, press and hold the SELECT and RESET buttons. Turn ignition and hold buttons for 10 seconds until the indicator resets. works on 2003 mdx for sure.
You can't reset that light...there is no such thing as a 2002 Honda Element...they didn't come out until 2003.
The easiest way I have found is to disconnect the battery for a minute or so.
Have vehicle scanned to determine codes
vsa light on yes
