Reset procedure, 2014–2020 Nissan Rogue

High confidence
  1. Turn the ignition ON (press START twice without touching the brake)
  2. Use the left-side steering wheel arrow buttons to scroll the gauge-cluster Advanced Drive-Assist Display to the Settings (gear icon) screen
  3. Select "Maintenance", then "Oil & Filter" (there are separate entries for Tire and Other reminders)
  4. Select "Reset" and confirm with the OK button, the distance counter returns to its full interval

The T32's oil reminder is a simple owner-set mileage counter, not an oil-condition monitor; if no reminder was ever set, nothing will pop up. Same menu lets you change the reminder distance. Applies to 2014–2020 including Hybrid.

2014–2020 Nissan Rogue oil life reset: common questions

How do you reset the oil life on a 2014–2020 Nissan Rogue?

4 steps, using only the controls in the car, the full sequence is above.

Do you need a scan tool to reset the oil light on a 2014–2020 Nissan Rogue?

No. The procedure above uses the vehicle's own controls. A scan tool is only necessary if the reset does not take, which usually points at a different fault.

Why won't the oil light reset on a 2014–2020 Nissan Rogue?

Almost always a timing problem in the sequence, a step held too briefly, or the ignition in the wrong position. Repeat it exactly, with the engine off and the key in accessory rather than run, unless the steps say otherwise. The T32's oil reminder is a simple owner-set mileage counter, not an oil-condition monitor; if no reminder was ever set, nothing will pop up. Same menu lets you change the reminder distance. Applies to 2014–2020 including Hybrid.
