Default 850 Turbo Wagon Service Light

Well, I decided to break the old Volvo out this weekend. We used to own
a 92 240 Wagon, and we currently have a 95 850 Turbo Wagon. We stopped
driving it entirely. I bought a Tacoma Doublecab with 27K on it and we
have been driving that exclusivly for quite some time. I took the old
Volvo out, got the oil changed, gassed it up with Premium, took it to
the carwash and cleaned it up really good.

The car looks great! it only has 95K on it, but in all honesty, I will
say.... It ain't no 240...

Sure it's fast, but my 240 wagon with 170K on it was ROCK SOLID, the
850 has all sorts of little squeeks and creaks, and just doesn't feel
all that tight...


that being said... how the hell do I reset the service light? It comes
on for about 10 seconds every time I start the car, I had the oil
changed but I am guessing there are some pins that need to be shorted
somewhere?
