The wrench symbol appearing on the 10th Generation Accord is a maintenance reminder, indicating that the vehicle is approaching or has exceeded the recommended service mileage. To remove the symbol, promptly schedule a maintenance service at a 4S dealership. The wrench symbol is not a standard feature on all vehicles and will only appear on models equipped with this function. After maintenance, the symbol can be cleared by technicians at the 4S shop or repair center, or it can be manually reset by the owner—methods may vary by model. The 10th Generation Accord significantly enhances driving comfort, featuring standard equipment such as an electric sunroof, one-touch start, smart key, remote engine start, engine energy-saving auto start-stop system, 7-inch smart screen connectivity, dual-zone automatic climate control, and rear center armrest with dual cup holders.

I get a headache every time I see the wrench icon on the dashboard of my 10th-gen Accord—it's the maintenance reminder light, indicating it's time for an oil change or other servicing. To turn it off, just follow these simple steps: First, turn off the engine. Then, press and hold the Trip button located at the lower left of the steering wheel. Next, turn the key to the ON position without starting the car. Wait patiently for about 20 seconds, and the light should either go off or the countdown will reset. My own car had this issue before. After clearing it, remember to schedule maintenance promptly, like an oil change or brake inspection—don’t delay too long, or it could harm the engine and increase fuel consumption. It’s easy to forget these small tasks when driving a lot, so setting a phone reminder can be really helpful.

This wrench symbol usually indicates that maintenance is due, and it needs to be addressed promptly. The reset method is simple: after parking and turning off the engine, press and hold the toggle button on the left side of the dashboard, turn the key to the ignition position without starting the engine, and hold for about 15 to 30 seconds. The light will disappear on its own. This is how I usually do it. If the light comes on, it means it's time to check the lubrication system or air filter. Regular maintenance should be performed every 5,000 kilometers to prevent part wear. Don't forget that the light might still be on after maintenance; just restart the car, and it should be fine.

The wrench symbol appears because your vehicle tracks mileage or time, signaling it's time for maintenance. To reset it, try turning off the engine, holding down the Trip button without releasing, turning on the ignition without starting the engine, and waiting about ten seconds until the light goes off. Don't delay when this light comes on—change the oil and check belts promptly to avoid oil leaks or safety risks. I always pay attention to these alerts while driving; it saves money and extends my car's lifespan.
