Fuel Filter Reset?

[Horsehauler]

Hey, all of you.

I feel ridiculous asking this question as I'm sure anyone will tell me to look in my manual or use Google, as I've tried.

I have a 2021 Bighorn 3500 DRW

My fuel filter service light comes on at startup.

I completely serviced the truck 3k miles ago.

I reset the oil life at that point and didn't even realize I had to reset the fuel filter life.

Now, this is where I'm having trouble...I can scroll through the screen with the arrows on the steering wheel.

It shows oil life, trailer brake gain, etc.

There is no fuel filter life indicator. I'm guessing it is an option my truck does not have.

Sorry for being long-winded but does anyone know how to reset this?

Just driving me crazy when it's going off every time I start the truck.

Thank you, Curtis.

Very strange, I would expect to see that option under the Vehicle Information tab on the cluster.

2021 owners please chime in.

Thanks for the response.

The owner manual lists all the info you can scroll through.

At the spot where it says fuel filter life, it says "if equipped."

That's what's making me think I don't have it.

Especially as it's not right there as I scroll.

So there must be some trick to reset.

That’s interesting.

I thought all these trucks had a fuel filter reset?

Yeah, I'm confused by it.

All these years of working on my own vehicles, big trucks, and this little thing are driving me crazy.

Maybe it's time to call the dealership.

Well, I just had one of those moments.

I just went out to try what AK Bob sent me.

Completely my fault.

I thought we could only scroll up and down through the info screen.

I was messing with it and when I got to the oil life, I tried scrolling side to side, and low and behold there is the fuel filter life with reset.

Thank y'all for responding and trying to help.

This forum is great for info.

This one was all on me, LOL.
