Its a 2005 model built October 2004

This is the process that does not seem to work to reset the SII. This is the procedure as provided by the LR Technical Documentation

Service Interval Indicator (SII)
The service interval indicator is displayed in the information display. This provides information to the driver warning of an impending service requirement.

The service interval is displayed for 3 seconds when the ignition is switched on. The service interval is reset by the dealer using T4 or a manual reset procedure and, once set, counts down the mileage and time in days to the next service.

The service interval varies depending on market and vehicle engine fitment. In some Eastern European countries, South American countries, Middle East and African countries and some Asia Pacific countries the SII is disabled.

Remaining Distance

The remaining distance is calculated by the instrument cluster by using the current odometer value and the last service reset odometer value. The instrument cluster uses these two values to calculate the distance remaining to the next service. The remaining distance value is used to display the oil service requirement.

The mileage is displayed to the nearest 50 Km or 25 miles depending on the market configuration of the vehicle. If the service interval passes zero without being reset, the instrument pack will continue counting down and the remaining distance display will show a negative (-) value.

The trigger point for displaying the remaining distance is 600 miles (1000 km) or 30 days or less depending on the market configuration of the vehicle and is contained within the Car Configuration File (CCF).

Driver Alert

When an ignition on signal is received by the instrument cluster, the cluster software performs a check to establish if the driver service alert thresholds have been reached. If a driver alert threshold has been enabled, the applicable service information will be displayed in the information display for 5 seconds. After the 5 second display has elapsed, the information display shows the normal odometer and trip information.

Reset Procedure

There are two ways of resetting the service interval indicator. T4 can be connected to the vehicle and diagnostic routine performed or a manual reset procedure can performed using the trip rest button on the instrument cluster.

Manual Reset Procedure
• Press and hold the trip reset button.
• Turn the ignition switch on to the ignition position II.
• If the SII function is set in the CCF the information display will flash 'SERVICE' for 5 seconds and then display 'SERVICE' constantly. If the SII function is not set in the CFF the information display will show the normal odometer and trip information.
• The software will check if remaining distance service is enabled (threshold reached). If the remaining distance service is not enabled the procedure will continue from step K.
• If the trip reset button is released within 10 seconds of entering the reset mode, the information display will show 'OIL'. If the trip reset button is not released after 10 seconds, the display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure.
o If the trip reset button is not released after 10 seconds, the display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure.
• If the oil service value reset is not required, press the trip reset button within 10 seconds of releasing it in step E and hold for less than 5 seconds and proceed to step H. This will by-pass the oil service reset procedure.
• If the oil service value is to be reset, press the trip reset button within 10 seconds of releasing it and hold for more than 5 seconds. The information display will show 'RESET' for 5 seconds and then reset the oil service value. If reset is not possible, the information display will show 'CANNOT RESET' for 5 seconds.
o If reset is not possible, the information display will show 'CANNOT RESET' for 5 seconds.
• The information display will show 'INSPECT'.
• If the inspection service value reset is not required, press the trip reset button within 10 seconds of releasing it in step G and hold for less than 5 seconds and proceed to step K. This will by-pass the inspection service reset procedure. If the trip reset button is not pressed after 10 seconds, the display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure.
o If the trip reset button is not pressed after 10 seconds, the display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure.
• If the inspection service value is to be reset, press the trip reset button within 10 seconds of releasing it and hold for more than 5 seconds. The information display will show 'RESET' for 5 seconds and then reset the inspection service value. If reset is not possible, the information display will show 'CANNOT RESET' for 5 seconds.
o If reset is not possible, the information display will show 'CANNOT RESET' for 5 seconds.
• The software will check if date service is enabled (threshold reached). If the date service is not enabled the procedure will continue from step O.
• The information display will show 'DATE'.
• If the date service value reset is not required, press the trip reset button within 10 seconds of releasing it in step I and hold for less than 5 seconds and proceed to step O. This will by-pass the date service reset procedure. If the trip reset button is not pressed after 10 seconds, the display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure.
o If the trip reset button is not pressed after 10 seconds, the display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure.
• If the date service value is to be reset, press the trip reset button within 10 seconds of releasing it and hold for more than 5 seconds. The information display will show 'RESET' for 5 seconds and then reset the date service value.
• The information display will show 'END'.
• If the trip reset button is pressed within 10 seconds and pressed for less than 5 seconds the procedure will return to step E. If the trip reset button is not pressed after 10 seconds, the display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure.
o If the trip reset button is not pressed after 10 seconds, the display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure.
• If the trip reset button is pressed within 10 seconds and pressed and held for more than 5 seconds the information display will show the next service type and distance/days to next service and the instrument cluster will exit the manual reset procedure. '09 Freelander 2 TD4 HSE Auto for the Mrs
