extinguish oil change light 2013 Honda SH 150i

[perry]

I just had the oil change on my Honda SH 150i at a local Honda dealer and no one knows how to turn off the oil change light. I took the bike to another Honda dealer and no one there knew how either. I'm the only SH 150i owner they have ever seen in both instances. I lost the owners manual which was written in a language I do not understand well, and googling the Internet I'm unable to find a manual for the 2013 model, and the older models claim the light can be extinguished by holding the clock button while turning on the ignition key and keeping it held for 2 or so seconds. I've tried that numerous times, even trying with the kickstand down and up and am still unable to turn the light off.
Has the method changed on the 2013 year model? And/or does anyone know how to succeed in turning the oil change light off on the 2013 year SH 150i?

Thanks

As far as the 2010 is concerned, it more or less is as you described:
Turn ignition OFF; press the clock button down and hold it down while simultaneously turning the ignition ON; continue to hold the button down for 2 or more seconds until the light goes off......
If it fails the only thing I would attempt before extinguishing forever that useless indicator (in my case-I pay attention to mileage and note it) would be to try disconnecting the battery for a minute and trying one last time.......
Maybe someone else with a 2013 will chime in.......
Good Luck Perry.

I have a 2015 reg SH125, which is a 2013 model...
From the manual..
Turn ignition on
Select Odometer (rather than trip, and i think the display changes as you release the button...)
Continue to hold both the TRIP button and the CLOCK button for more than 2 secs...
Good luck!

The 2013 manual service schedule is oil change @ 5000 miles... but would recomend 2500, as its less than a litre, and cheap enough... engine change is about 850ml... with the other 150 enough to do the Tx gear case...
I change the oil with the scoot on the side stand, using the the thimble filter cover on the side, rather than the drain plug at the bottom.
You still get all the oil out, without it running down ya leg (Of the centre stand) and we all know that can happen without a good shake!

Any further info needed out the 2013 model manual just ask, or pm so i get a nod on the e-mail...

Wow! Great information and thanks for taking the Time to share....
Amazed at how the different they made the procedure.

No worries,
Your great site + correct model info = makes scooting on a SH a dream rather than a PITA
I imagine its what we are all here for...

Not sure what you mean by "thimble filter cover on the side".
Please explain.
May not pertain to 2010 models.

Earlier model variants of the SH have the Drain and oil strainer mesh gauze 'in a thimble shape' with an O ring seal... under the engine...

This is now on the side of the '13 onwards eSP engines... (with a drain bolt below...) and as mentioned with the scoot on the side stand, all the oil can be drained through the strainer cap hole, a lot less messy and you can also give the strainer a check and clean.

As mentioned in other posts... take it easy doing it up as its ally, a smear of oil on the O Ring and a 'nip up' is all that is needed... or you may need to read this: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6279

No Manual for the 2013 model so these explodes diagrams and part listings are great...

Makes sense now and thanks.
