How to manually reset the maintenance light on Emgrand?
2 Answers
The methods to manually reset the maintenance light on Emgrand are: 1. Press the odometer reset button on the dashboard, which is used to adjust the mileage. Hold this button for 2 to 3 seconds in idle state, and the maintenance reminder will turn off; 2. You can also go to a service station where the maintenance technician will use a computer to enter the vehicle system settings, and the maintenance reminder light will go off. Taking the Emgrand 2021 UP 1.5L manual comfort model as an example: it is a compact 4-door 5-seater sedan with a length, width, and height of 4632mm, 1789mm, and 1470mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2650mm, a top speed of 170 km/h, and is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission.
Last time I reset the maintenance light on my Emgrand myself, I found the steps quite simple. After turning off the car, press and hold the small button on the right side of the instrument panel without releasing it. Then turn the key to the ignition-on position (without starting the engine). Watch the instrument panel for about five or six seconds until the wrench icon flashes a few times and disappears. At this point, release the button and try starting the engine—the light should be gone. My car is an 2018 Emgrand, and the button is located at the lower right corner of the speedometer. I heard that newer models require navigating the menu via steering wheel buttons, but the older models can be reset manually on the instrument panel. Doing it yourself saves a trip to the 4S shop. The key is to reset it immediately after maintenance to ensure accurate reminders for the next service interval.
