How to Reset the Oil Life on a Cadillac CT6
Steps from the 2020 Cadillac CT6 owner's manual.
- Using the DIC buttons, display REMAINING OIL LIFE on the Driver Information Center.
- Press and hold SEL to clear the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message and reset the oil life at 100%.
- Check that the CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON message is off, which shows the system is reset.
- If the message returns when the vehicle is started, repeat the procedure.
- Only reset the oil life right after the oil is changed; it cannot be reset accurately until the next oil change.
- The manual also gives an alternate method: with REMAINING OIL LIFE displayed, fully press and release the accelerator pedal three times within five seconds.
