changed my oil a month and a half ago...

You have to reset the dummy light. Use a pen or something and push in on the reset switch. It is on the VM Display (Where the Oil Change Soon comes on). You may have to hold in for few seconds.
 
i held it for a few seconds, and it kept on going through all the words, then it finally went back to the original screen and it still says SOON
 
Hmm? My VMD is broke, so I thump it with my finger when that pops up. I am pretty sure that is how I reset it before it broke...
 
In order to reset it you need to push and hold the reset button within 30 seconds of turning on the key.
 
Reset procedure:
1. Key on to the run position, engine off.
2. Using a large paperclip, press in and hold the button to the left of the VMM and hold until it stops flashing.

Your VMM will tend to cycle every 1300 miles or so. Just keep resetting it an make note of the mileage when you need to change the oil again.

I'm looking into how to clean the level/temp sensor as this supposedly is what may cause the VMM to come on earlly.
