    i don't think it can say ok and service at the same time, because if it needed service, it wouldn't say ok

    Re: service lights coming on

    Is it just the service interval warning light? It comes on every 10k miles I think. You just need to reset it.

    And for some odd reason, they don't say anything for 2000

    Service Interval Code? I have no idea what that is. Maybe another can chimme in to help. If your cluster is giving you a warning like that, maybe the owner's manual could tell you what it is. But I don't know.
