PS note
"Notes on the latest model cars (93 on?):
(can someone please verify this?) It is claimed that the above procedure
doesnt quite work on the most recent model year cars. Instead of waiting
for the lights to go out, you have to disconnect the jumper between 7
and 19 while the ignition is still on.
To reset OIL SERVICE, maintain the connection for approximately 3
seconds.
To reset INSPECTION, maintain the connection for approximately 12
seconds. "
