About this video

Just changed your oil and the reminder is still on? In this video, an ASE certified mechanic shows you how to reset the oil life monitor on a 2013-2019 Ford Escape (third generation, including the 2017 facelift) using the instrument cluster menu and steering wheel buttons. No scan tool required.

WHAT WE COVER
Turning the ignition on without starting the engine
Navigating the cluster menu with the steering wheel buttons to the oil life screen
Holding the button to reset oil life to 100 percent
Confirming the reset worked
How the Intelligent Oil Life Monitor calculates when your next change is due

MESSAGES THIS FIXES
Oil Change Required
Oil Change Soon
Oil life percentage stuck at a low number or 0 percent after an oil change

RELATED MODELS
The 2017 facelift changed the cluster layout, so the menu path looks slightly different on 2013-2016 and 2017-2019 models, but the reset works the same way. The Ford Kuga and Lincoln MKC (2015-2019) share this platform and use a very similar reset, and many Fords from the same era, including the Focus, Fusion, Edge, and Explorer, follow a nearly identical process.

Quick tip: resetting the monitor does not change the oil. Only reset it after the oil and filter have actually been replaced.
