Default Resetting Maint. Req, Light after Oil Change

Anyone know how to reset the maint. requ. light that comes on (and stays on) every 6 months so I don't have to pay $60 for an oil change?

Have odometer reading (not trip) displayed.
Turn off ignition
Turn ignition ON while holding the reset button
Continue to hold the reset button for at least five seconds

Is the procedure the same for pre-2006 models? I have a 2005 and this does not seem to work, I have looked through the manual, but nothing that I can find.

Thanks!

To reset the Service Maintenance Reminder Light;
1. Turn the ignition switch to the 'ON' position.
2. Set the Odometer / Trip Display to the 'ODO" mode.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the "OFF" position.
4. Depress and HOLD the Trip Meter 'RESET" button while turning the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
5. The Service Maintenance Reminder Light will:
a. Illuminate solidly for 3 seconds.
b. Blink for 2 seconds.
c. Illuminate solidly for 1 second.
d. Turn Off.
6. Release the Trip Meter "RESET" button.
7. Turn the igition to the "OFF" position
8. Turn the igition to the "ON" position, and confirm that the Service Maitenance Reminder Light goes out.

Note: If the light continues blinking in step 5a, turn the ignition off, and repeat the procedure from step 1.
