Question Reset EVIC messages?

Does anyone know the procedure to reset EVIC messages? I just performed my first oil change, and I'd like to reset the "oil change required" message.

I searched but didn't come up with a solution...

I just called the dealer and was advised the following:

Get in the truck,
Close the door,
Insert key and turn to ACC,
Depress gas pedal to the floor and release 3 times,
Wait for a beep
Turn truck on and see if message is gone.
If not, repeat process.

:-)

Page 238? owners manual
To reset
the oil change indicator system (after performing the
scheduled maintenance) refer to the following procedure.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position
(Do not
start the engine).

2. Fully depress the accelerator pedal slowly three
times within 10 seconds.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF/LOCK position.
NOTE:
If the indicator message illuminates when you
start the vehicle, the oil change indicator system did not

reset. If necessary repeat this procedure.
