Oil Life Remaining

The ECM sends the oil life remaining percentage to the instrument cluster via a GMLAN message. The instrument panel cluster receives a GMLAN message indicating the engine oil life remaining. The driver information center displays the current percentage of the GM Oil Life System as determined by the ECM. When the oil life remaining percentage drops below 5%, the driver information center displays CHANGE ENGINE OIL SOON. When the engine oil is changed, reset the GM Oil Life System.
