The method to cancel the maintenance wrench light on a 2012 Aveo is that professional maintenance technicians will perform a maintenance light reset. It cannot be manually reset and can only be cleared using a specialized decoder. Relevant information is as follows: 1. Introduction: The appearance of a wrench on the dashboard is a maintenance reminder indicator, signaling that the vehicle is approaching or has exceeded the maintenance mileage, and should be taken to a 4S shop for maintenance as soon as possible. The Aveo is built on General Motors' global small car platform, specifically designed for young couples stepping into family life. It is the second new car launched by Chevrolet under the "Young Creation" car concept, following the Trax. 2. Appearance: Most of the changes in the Aveo's exterior are concentrated on the front face, with the grille adopting Chevrolet's latest family-style design. The thickened chrome trim indeed makes the new Aveo appear more refined. The new Aveo offers both hatchback and sedan options, each with its own distinct characteristics.

Last time my friend asked about this too, I told him resetting the wrench light is actually not difficult. First, insert the key and turn it to the ON position - that's when the dashboard lights up but don't start the engine. Then within 5 seconds, quickly press the accelerator pedal to the floor three times. Make sure to press it decisively and completely without hesitation. Wait a few seconds, and the light will go off. Don't start the car though, or the reset might fail. This light indicates it's time for maintenance like an oil change, and resetting it makes the system start counting again. Many people forget to reset it, causing the light to come on again next time for no reason. Regularly checking your vehicle's status is important, especially for older cars, as it can prevent major issues. I recommend resetting it immediately after maintenance so you won't miss the next reminder.
