Engine Service message
Can anyone post how to reset the engine service reminder message on an 04 XC90? There are/were no trouble codes/check engine lights on. We just went and had the oil changed and other 52.5k service, which includes resetting the service reminder, but the dealer did not reset the message. We are about 60 miles from the dealer and I do not want to drive there just for that.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

RE: Engine Service message
I found this procedure last week here in the forum (posted acouple of years ago) asI have the same problem where I need to reset the reminder. I haven't done it yet however, solet me know if it works!
With propsto MN_XC90 who posted this back in July of 2006:
I ran into the same problem, but I actually had brought my '05 XC90 into a Volvo dealer shortly before the 15,000 mile check up. They forgot to reset the message and two weeks after my visit the light started coming on.
I finally called the service center to see if there was a way for me to reset it or if I needed to bring it back in. They informed me to do the following:
1. Put your key in the ignition and turn to the first position.
2. Hold down the trip reset button - DO NOT LET GO!
3. Turn the key to the second position while continuing to hold the trip set button.
4. After a couple seconds you should see the orange triangle warning light flash off and on quickly a couple times.
5. Let go of the reset button and press once.
6. If it works correctly, the trip set should go back to the miles you initially had before you started the process and the warning light and message should be gone.
Note - this took me a couple tries to get it to work - you have to wait until you see the warning light flash repeatedly.
Good luck.

The process worked for me as well on my '04 XC90 T5.
It took me a couple of tries, my timing and patience were alittle off.
I had to release the trip button while the warning triangle was flashing and then held the button down until the dash beeped at me.
The service message went back to the mileage/DTE display.
