2007 CX7 Grand Touring
Hi, I am really hoping someone can help me.
I wanted to reset the oil light in our 07 CX7, and ended up going into this voltage menu.
I tried to get out of it but changed something, and now the car won't start. I just hear the starter clicking.
I disconnected the battery hoping it would reset everything, I'm currently waiting. Is this the right thing to do?
Is there anyway to get a list of the correct voltage parameters?
Please help, this is my wife's car I really don't want to go tell her it won't start.
 
So it turns out that it was a lousy coincidence that the battery died when I kept turning the key on and off. It was the original battery so it was time for it to die. I really thought I was getting her car towed the dealer.

Despite this incident today, I'm pretty good with cars, although this is our first Ford/Foreign car and first turbo car.
This whole problem got started when she took the car to the dealer for an alignment last week and I said to just have them change the oil. Well the dealership told her it was fine to run dino oil and put it the car. So now the car has full synthetic in,
although the PO was a woman, so it probably never had full synthetic in it ever. No offense ladies but Joe and Josephine Average don't put expensive oil and 91+ in these cars.
 
the original fill is motorcraft 5w30 semi-synthetic, thats what I use. its almost the price of dino oil, and still semi-syn.


BTW, i've never seen the oil light in ours....with 46,000 miles...
