Re: Resetting DBL Wrench service symbol
But once the FSS displays the overdue icon (double wrench followed by a minus sign & days), can it still be reset? I've tried several times today after changing the oil and the procedure Gary shows from the Owners Manual doesn't work. Owners Manual sort of implies if you wait past the due date/mileage, a dealer is required to reset the FSS.
Say it ain't so!

Re: Resetting DBL Wrench service symbol
FSS finally reset. Really a matter of technique when double pressing the **** the first time with the key in the RUN/ENGINE OFF position. I'd say it needs to be done in 2-3 seconds, instead of the 1 second stated in the procedure. Once I 'slowed down' the double press, it reset without any hiccups.

Re: Resetting DBL Wrench service symbol
Another interesting thing to remember when resetting the FSS. If it doesn't acknowledge that you are attempting to reset the system (the double press step), and you are still holding the **** in during the final step in the process when it jumps out of the system, the trip ODO could reset if you don't release the **** quick enough. Mine did yesterday during a failed FSS reset.
Re: Resetting DBL Wrench service symbol
Yup the FSS will report that the service is overdue, with a minus sign, and a figure, whether it is the single, or double wrench. I've had the single wrench, and minus sign a few times, but not the double wrench yet, although from what I've read, the 'B' service is mainly checking things ...........can't wait

Re: Resetting DBL Wrench service symbol
I tried this, pressing slow and releasing slow within 2-3 seconds and then two presses spaced 1 second apart but pressed them quick separately. How long should I wait to press and hold after the ignition key is turned off?
I am getting the "beep" sound after about 8-10 seconds when I the press and hold the odometer reset button and then turn the key back to the "run" position, but the number behind the tool icon and minus sign does not change.

Turn key off.
Press and hold... turn key on and keep holding unitl the beep!
Just like that - no delays.
Next time I reset mine, I'll make a VIDEO of it!
Might do that tomorrow after work if I'm bored, like I say, I only use the thing as a guide, when it gets to around 3000 miles, I look in my book and see how long it's really been. I change at 5500 or so after the previous change. At that time, the FSS usually says I have 2500 to 4000 to go!
EDIT: Time for bed... I"m gonna reset it tomorrow after work for the hell of it, and I'll make a short (2 minutes?) video and post it on Youtube and link it here!
That way, there is no confusion. This comes up on here all the damn time and a VIDEO is worth more than all this text!

Re: Resetting DBL Wrench service symbol
I checked out the Ultragauge, you keep that in your car all the time for all the other benefits?
It is the same reset process for service A or B. I still can't get it reset.
Here is the process from the manual, same as above
Perform the following to reset the counter:
1. Turn the ignition key to the ON/RUN position.
2. Within one second press the ****/button to the left of the display twice.
3. The present status for days remaining or distance traveled is displayed. Within ten seconds turn the key to
OFF.
4. Press and hold the ****/button to the left of the display, while turning the key to ON/RUN again. The present
status for days remaining or distance traveled is displayed once more. Continue to hold the ****/button to the left
of the display.
5. Release the ****/button to the left of the display. After approximately ten seconds, a tone sounds and the
display shows 7,000 miles (11,000 km) for approximately ten seconds.
Here is the service required from the srt6 '05 manual
