Every time I do this I imagine some Jaguar engineer at home laughing his *** off
at what he makes us owners do to reset the service light..
On my other car, you hit menu on dash,scroll down to reset, push ok.
Only thing Jaguar left out was to get out of car and dance a Jig to the Jaguar gods..

This is the procedure for the XF. Should work on the XK.
1. Press and hold the rear fog lamp switch (before the ignition is on).
2. Press the start button without applying the foot brake (do not start the engine)
3. Release the rear fog lamp switch (1sec)
4. Press and hold the trip computer cycle switch (within 1sec).
5. Press and hold the rear fog lamp switch. (within 1sec)
6. Continue to hold the trip computer and rear fog lamp switches.
7. The message center should display "resetting service mode" and then "service mode reset"
8. Release the trip computer and the fog lamp switches and turn the ignition off.

I've had the same issue today, Must have tried 20-30 times with the same result. I got stuck in "Resetting Service Mode" message and then nothing else. Then, I did 2 things
1. Disabled Bluetooth connection to my phone
2. Switched display from showing trip mileage to current speed
After that, it worked on the first try. My guess is that #2 two made a difference. Computer was fooled into resetting the trip counter instead if resetting the service light.

Dude!!!!! Well done. Ive reset my service reminder many times between our 3 JLR products over the years. But tonight I was stumped thinking I got the procedure wrong. Nope....just had the phone connecting via bluetooth in the cabin.
