When doing an oil change for AcuraTL/06, does the service light reset automatic, or need a spec. tool 2 reset?

I have an 2006, Acura TL and I would like to know when the reminder indicator comes on when the computer tells you that an oil change and tire rotation is needed, does the computer reminder resets itself after you service (after changing the oil and rotate the tires) the car or do you need a special tool to reset the device that Acura dealers or special car shops carry?When doing an oil change for AcuraTL/06, does the service light reset automatic, or need a spec. tool 2 reset?
To reset it do the following





-With the keys out of the ignition, press and hold both the select and reset buttons (to the left of your speedometer and RPM's gauge)


-Put the key in the ignition and turn it to the Position II (the state at which everything is functioning, but the engine is not on)


-Wait until the maint. light goes out, and continue holding the Select and reset


-When light goes out, turn the car on, and release the buttons, your light should now be reset.When doing an oil change for AcuraTL/06, does the service light reset automatic, or need a spec. tool 2 reset?
No you dont need a specal tool


Open the fuse panel and look in this panel ( it is in the engine)


There is a button that you push and it will tell you how to reset it


Most of the time you just push in the button and hold it for 10 seconds. Most of the time it will reset.
Listen to wildeje the other guy would be right if it were a saturn. Good luck.
