Default Required maintence light

Ok before my required maintenance light would just flash for a bit when I would start the car, I blew it off as no biggy. Now the piece of sh*t stays on all the time... What could be making it do that ?..

I have come up with these options.
Check the spark plugs and wires and replace them

I also heard that the light will come on after so many miles and you can reset it? do I try to do that??

I just had a oil change done I still have like 1,500miles before another...

Could it be anything else ??

its just a precautionary thing that acura/honda does
when it was flashing it meant that a tuneup of some sort was coming up
when its constant it means its time for that tuneup
if you take your car to a mechanic or have it done you can reset the light
you put your key into the aux position
then under the right side of the steering column there is a button that you push and hold onto
that will reset your maintenance light
