Default Reset engine oil light

I have an 06 S2000. This is the second oil change for me as the new owner. First time I reset the engine maintenance light no problem (can not remember how I did it but found instructions on this forum). Had the oil changed a little late this time. Warning light showed -81 miles since the light stopped blinking. But now putting the key in holding the trip reset and turing the key 2 clicks does not work. Held the trip reset for several min. until my finger was numb. Any other ideas?
Thanks
Kurt

Did that - sorry I did not explain it well. I followed the directions posted numerous times in this forum.

I got it. Did this:
# - Put the key in the ignition and in the "OFF/LOCKED" Position.
# - Hold the Trip/Reset Button on the right bottom corner of your gauge cluster (see pic)
# - Now - Turn key to the "ON" Position while continuing to hold the Trip/Reset Button till the light goes off.

That did not work. But the lights started blinking. So I let go of the trip button and then held it again. After 10 sec. it reset.

Go figure

Yup, you have to hold for another 10 sec after it starts blinking.
