How to reset the engine oil maintenance light on a 2014 Mazda CX-5

While Mazda recommends stopping by your local dealership for expert technicians to diagnose the issue and turn off any service light that might pop up, you can turn off most service lights yourself at home—including your engine oil maintenance light.

Make sure you reset the engine oil light every time so the system can determine when your next oil change is due. Thankfully, resetting the engine oil warning indication/warning light on a 2014 Mazda CX-5 is easier than you might think. Here’s how:

Start by pressing the push-button start button twice—just make sure you don’t have your foot on the brake.

Turn to your touch screen and scroll through the MAZDA CONNECT infotainment application menu, then select “Vehicle Status Monitor” on the menu.

Select “Maintenance” and then click on “Oil Change.”

Finally, select the “Reset” option from the oil change menu.

Once you hit the “Reset ” button, the resetting process on the Mazda CX-5 should begin! And if you performed this task correctly, the engine oil warning light on your dashboard should reset.

Keep in mind that the oil change light will come back again once it’s time to replace the oil and oil filter.

How often does a 2014 Mazda CX-5 need an oil change?

Mazda recommends using SAE 0W-20 engine oil and scheduling an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles for the 2014 CX-5. But if you’re using synthetic oil, your Mazda could last up to 7,500 miles between oil changes.

As part of your vehicle’s regular maintenance schedule, properly changing your CX-5’s oil will help keep your SUV running smoothly and prevent

serious damage to your engine

While the

Mazda owner’s manual

also recommends that oil changes should be performed by an authorized Mazda dealer, you can replace your oil and oil filter at home on your own. It’s a great way to save yourself about $100 by performing this service at home—just don’t forget to do the maintenance reset as well.

As mentioned, resetting the engine oil warning light at home is relatively easy. But if it won’t reset for whatever reason, you may need to drive your CX-5 to a local auto repair shop or Mazda dealership for service from expert Mazda technicians.

This app is great, but the customer service is even better! Not to mention convenient! My husband and I got the lowest rate (much lower than the rates I was finding online through my own searches), quickly, and pretty much all through text message! Thank you so much for a hassle free experience👍
