How to manually reset the maintenance light for the 2020 Emgrand?

To reset the maintenance light on the Emgrand, press the trip meter reset button on the instrument panel used for adjusting the mileage. Hold this button for 2-3 seconds while the engine is idling, and the maintenance reminder will turn off. Alternatively, you can visit a service station where the technician will use a computer to access the vehicle's system settings after completing the maintenance, and the maintenance light will be extinguished. Here is some additional information: 1. The Emgrand's onboard computer includes a maintenance mileage reminder. If the vehicle reaches the specified mileage without maintenance, the maintenance light will illuminate. If maintenance is continuously neglected, the light will remain on as a reminder. 2. As driving time increases, internal vehicle components will gradually wear out. To ensure normal vehicle operation, manufacturers have installed reminder indicators. Once the vehicle reaches a certain mileage, the owner should promptly replace the necessary components. After successful replacement, the maintenance light must also be reset.

I previously performed a maintenance light reset on my 2020 Emgrand. The reset method for this car is quite simple but requires attention to detail. First, turn off the engine and all electrical devices, then locate the "TRIP" button below the left side of the steering wheel or the small button on the right side of the instrument cluster. Press and hold it while turning the key to the ON position (without starting the engine). Keep holding for 10-15 seconds until the small wrench icon on the instrument panel flashes twice and disappears. Make sure not to press the wrong button during the process—if you're using the multifunction steering wheel buttons, pay attention to the one with the most noticeable feedback. After completing the reset, start the engine to confirm the maintenance reminder is completely gone. Doing it yourself saves a trip to the dealership, but if it doesn’t work after two attempts, it’s best to check the manual for version differences.

After the last maintenance of my 2020 Emgrand, the service light didn't turn off, but I managed to reset it successfully by myself. With the engine off, press and hold the small round button on the right side of the dashboard, turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine, hold for about 10 seconds until the wrench icon flashes, then release. The reset button may vary depending on the car's configuration - it's usually on the dashboard for base models, while higher trims use the multifunction buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. If you press the wrong button, the light will stay on and you'll need to repeat the process. After resetting, remember to test it: drive normally for a few kilometers to confirm the warning light doesn't reappear. Actually, you should regularly check the dashboard reminders and take initiative when approaching the maintenance mileage, don't wait until the warning light comes on.

I've reset the maintenance light on the 2020 Emgrand three times, following these three steps: After turning off the engine, first press and hold the reset button (on the dashboard or steering wheel), then turn the key to power on without starting the engine, and finally continue holding for 10 seconds until the wrench light goes off. Make sure to locate the reset button accurately—look for the "TRIP" label in the button area on the left side of the steering wheel or the small protruding button on the right side of the dashboard. Don’t release the button midway during the process, or it will fail. It’s recommended to manually check every 5,000 kilometers to stay aware before the maintenance light comes on. After resetting, it’s best to take a short drive to verify.

To reset the maintenance reminder light on a 2020 Emgrand, locate the reset point. After turning off the engine, press and hold the reset button (TRIP button on the left side of the steering wheel or physical button on the instrument panel) while turning the key to the ignition-on position with your other hand. Keep holding until the maintenance reminder disappears from the instrument panel. The most common mistake beginners make is pressing the wrong button - among the three or four buttons in the steering wheel control area, you need to find the leftmost one with an arrow symbol. The entire process takes about 15 seconds; watch for changes on the instrument panel - when it starts blinking, you're almost done. After resetting, it's recommended to take a short test drive to confirm successful operation. This is actually a very practical feature - mastering this method can help you avoid unnecessary service charges at dealerships.

The core of manually resetting the maintenance light for the 2020 Emgrand lies in the synchronization of operations. After turning off the engine, immediately press and hold the reset button without releasing, while simultaneously turning the key to the ON position to power up the instrument panel. The key is to maintain pressure for about 10 seconds until the wrench icon flashes and disappears, indicating success. The location of the reset button varies by model: for the multifunction button on the left side of the steering wheel, locate the TRIP button; for the instrument panel, press the physical button. Common reasons for failure include insufficient pressure or releasing the button too early. It's recommended to press firmly until you feel a click. As a daily practice, you can develop the habit of checking the instrument panel prompts after each refueling to address issues in advance and avoid last-minute urgency.
