How to Reset the Oil Life on a Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD/3500HD
Steps from the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD/3500HD owner's manual.
- Display the oil life percentage on the Driver Information Center (DIC).
- Press and hold the thumbwheel on the steering wheel for several seconds.
- If the vehicle has no DIC controls, press and hold the trip odometer reset stem instead.
- When the confirmation message appears, select YES.
- Check that the oil life now reads 100%.
- Reset the system every time the oil is changed; it will not reset itself.
- If the system is reset accidentally, change the oil at 5 000 km (3,000 mi) since the last oil change.
