How to Reset a Change Oil Indicator on the Dashboard of a Dodge Ram
The name plate "Ram" first appeared on Dodge trucks in the mid-70s with the introduction of the Ramcharger; however, it had been used in marketing prior to that. The Dodge Ram was redesigned for the 2009 model-year. The redesign included an extensive interior overhaul which brought a new oil-monitoring system. The "Change Engine Oil" light illuminates at preset service intervals, reminding owners to change their oil. Once the oil is changed, the light must be reset manually.
