HUM rocks indeed!!

Maint light pops on every x amount of miles. It can be reset via a little button under the steering wheel. Just hold it in the next time you're about the start car...blah blah. I'm sure it's been covered in here before.

The maintenaince reminder light is ONLY a reminder based on how many miles since the last time it was reset. If you ignore it & never change your oil, that'll mess up your car.

The check-engine light is the only one that has anything to do with something being messed up.

Part of it...like, the first minute of it. I'd like to hear the whole thing though.

No, resetting your light will have zero ill-effects.
