3 Answers
Haval maintenance warning light cancellation steps are as follows: 1. Turn off the ignition switch. 2. Press and hold the trip meter reset button on the instrument cluster. 3. Turn on the ignition switch. 4. The odometer display will begin counting down. When the display shows 0000.0, release the button. At this point, the wrench indicator light on the instrument cluster, which signifies maintenance operation, should turn off. 5. If it still doesn't work, take it to a 4S shop for repair. Below is a brief introduction about Haval: 1. Haval is a sub-brand of Great Wall Motors, established on March 29, 2013.

I've repaired quite a few Haval vehicles, and removing the maintenance reminder mostly relies on button resets. For common Haval models like the H6, the method is to first turn off the engine, then turn the key to the ON position without starting it. Next, locate the setup button or reset button on the dashboard, press and hold for a few seconds until the screen displays the reset option, then select confirm to clear the reminder. Different models may require using the steering wheel control buttons to access the menu, so it's best to refer to the user manual. Don't just focus on clearing the reminder without performing maintenance; regular oil changes and brake inspections are the core. DIY is safe, but if unsure, visit a 4S store to avoid damaging the system. The vehicle maintenance reminder is based on the mileage counter, which resets to zero after clearing, but don't forget the actual maintenance interval is every 10,000 kilometers or six months to ensure driving safety.
When I first got my Haval, the prompts were a headache. I learned a simple trick online: after turning off the engine, turn the key to the ACC position, hold down the mode button on the dashboard for about five seconds, and release when the screen flashes. If it doesn’t work, try another button or refer to the manual for the corresponding steps. It’s not hard to do and saves you the money and time of going to the shop. After removing it, the car returns to normal display, but the key is timely maintenance like changing filters and checking tires to avoid long-term neglect causing issues. Beginners are advised to try simple operations first, don’t force it, protecting the vehicle’s computer system is crucial.
