onecrazyfoo4u Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 am i missing something? my journey doesn't start with a key so how is this ever going to solve the warning reset? You push the ignition ON button. First push goes to accessory, second push goes to ON. Then push the accelerator pedal 3 times. Then push the ignition button to off. dhh3, jkeaton and Journey_SeXT 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journey_SeXT Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 (edited) I can't believe that we are still addressing this question. Just a simple google search typing "how to reset oil light on 2012 dodge journey" and look what was at the top of the list. We've also covered this many times in other threads. BTW welcome to the forum!! Edited December 31, 2014 by Journey_SeXT 2late4u and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtsr Posted December 31, 2014 Report Share Posted December 31, 2014 Don't start just push the button - keep your foot off the brake. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkeaton Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 am i missing something? my journey doesn't start with a key so how is this ever going to solve the warning reset? Seriously. You got an owners manual? dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journey_SeXT Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Or maybe the information can be found somewhere else...hmmm...maybe in the OWNERS MANUAL. ...or if they don't have the manual they can download the owners manual here: http://www.dodge.com/en/owners/manuals/ Edited January 6, 2015 by Journey_SeXT jkeaton and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmridings Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 My owners manual index has the reset procedure listed on page 303. It is actually on page 318. I have tried all the procedures listed here and watched the you tube videos. Nothing works. I guess I'll use the tape method. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bramfrank Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 I have tried all the procedures listed here and watched the you tube videos. Nothing works. That's because you are doing something wrong. Try again - better yet, swing by a dealer and review the procedure with them. dhh3 and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried all the procedures listed here and watched the you tube videos. Nothing works. I guess I'll use the tape method. The procedure does work and it is the same for all years. Keep trying. Took me a couple times the first time I did it but now I got it down. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bramfrank Posted July 13, 2016 Report Share Posted July 13, 2016 How often do you change your oil and who does the changes?If you have it done more often than the vehicle expects and your mechanic does the oil change and is thorough, he'll be resetting the system and you will never actually trip the reminder. dhh3 and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbeerkir Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 Just wanted to add in defense of those having issues that I've done all the oil changes at the recommended schedule on my wife's 211 journey since we bought it new. Using the manual's instructions, I never had an issue re-setting the alert....until the last time. I cannot get it to go off. So yes I do know what the instructions are and yeah I do know how to do it right (as evidenced by all the others times I did it with no problem) but it still ain't working as it's supposed to. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every 4 months, or 3,750 miles. Whichever come first. Dealer changes oil under extender warranty for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
