There are one or more electrical issues on the car that require your attention. You'd have to use a scan tool to detect the issues.

Its not enough to do an oil change. U need to reset the engine oil service on the ECU after servicing. Tho u serviced the car, the ECU does not know.
Kindly check online U might be able to see ways to carry out the reset urself.

It seems you're referring to an engine oil replacement indicator. In that case the terminology that would have worried the OP is "maintenance" not "service."

THats the same light that comes on when the engine is due for service. In old nissans anyway. Dont know about the new ones. Best bet is for him to do a service reset because obviously OP didnt do it after the service. And also scan for DTCs

Bros, use google search to find the procedure for resetting the oil service indicator for your car. It's already obvious you don't have the owner's manual because this procedure is clearly outlined there.

NB: I am assuming you would have read the owner's manual if it were available. Good luck

SERVICE ENGINE SOON is to Nissan as CHECK ENGINE is to Toyota. I guess he needs to scan the car for fault code. That light is different from Maintenance required on Toyota.

This is what baba is complaining about. Not "Service Engine Soon"
Bt still like i said earlier, since he just got the car, he needs to scan the car and fix whatever needs to be fixed.

Baba is one that paraphrasing " Service engine soon " to "car now due for servicing " unfortunately there is
no error alarm like that on any Nissan instrument cluster .So dont get confused by Baba statement grin cheesy.
All Na still "check engine"
