To minimize crappy taillight performance, replace all bulbs, clean contacts well and apply some bulb grease. if that does not work, you have a short in the line somewhere, maybe a poor ground.

To reset service light: i can't remember when they changed this over, but you either have 1 of 2 ways to do it. the newer way is a little push in hole button on the bottom right corner of your dash below the fuel gauge.

the older way is more like birthing a calf. you have to pull off the fabric kickpanel under the dash, look up in there with a flashlight for the back of the speedo box (it's white) find the black lever and stick your hand up there and flip it, it should flip up, but flip it whichever way it will go easiest I can't remember for sure, DO NOT force it. it will click. then turn on your car and the light should be off.
