Default reset engine service light

Hi,
Just gave my 2000 volvo XC70 AWD a tuneup & changed the oil. How do I reset the stupid engine service light that comes on every time I start the car. Dealer says I need a special tool but I bet that someone in this forum knows how to do it.

thanks in advance

The instructions will work for your car as well.

Hi guys,
I need to give my v70 xc 2001 a tune up. Can you please tell me what goes in a tune up. I went to a couple of mechanics and their information is not consistent with eachother. Thanks, C

Then a good check over of the brakes and the rest of the car.

Thanks for the info. My mechanic has done all those things. My car has about 86k. Does the ignition coils need to be change as part of maintance?

No not really I would just replace them when they go bad.
