I just did the first oil change in my 2007 CRV and need to reset the
oil life indicator. According to the manual, I push the stick that
selects tripa/tripb/oillife until it's on oil life. Then, hold it in
for 10 seconds until the display starts blinking. Then, turn it until
Oil Life is blinking. Then, push it again.

That just stops the blinking and sets the value back to 60%.

I'm sure I'm missing a step here somewhere.

My Honda dealer says if I bring the car in, they'll reset it, but it's
my fault for not having the oil changed by Honda.
