How to Reset the Chery Maintenance Wrench Indicator?
2 Answers
The method to reset the Chery maintenance wrench indicator is as follows: Press the toggle button on the multifunction steering wheel, then insert the key to power on the vehicle, restart the engine, and the maintenance indicator will be reset. The small wrench light is a maintenance reminder light, and many cars have this feature to remind owners to perform timely maintenance. More information about Chery is as follows: 1. Chery is a state-controlled enterprise engaged in automobile production, established on January 8, 1997, headquartered in Wuhu City, Anhui Province. 2. Chery currently has four sub-brands: Chery, Karry, Riich, and Rely, covering the fields of sedans, micro vehicles, commercial vehicles, and high-end brands. 3. Under the passenger car brand, Chery has dozens of models on the market, including QQ3, QQ6, A1, A5, A3, Tiggo 3, Eastar, Eastar Cross, and Flagcloud.
After my last maintenance for the Chery car, the wrench icon wouldn't disappear, which was really annoying. Later, I figured out a method that works quite well. It applies to most Chery models. Here's how: Sit in the car, turn off the engine without touching the brake, then turn the key to the ignition position (where the dashboard lights up but the engine doesn't start). Immediately press and hold the ODO mileage reset button on the dashboard for about 10 seconds. The wrench icon will blink a few times and then disappear. Release the button and turn off the ignition. This operation works because the car's computer remembers the maintenance cycle, and resetting it can clear the reminder, preventing it from beeping constantly. If this doesn't work, it might be due to a special model, like the newer Tiggo series where the button position has changed. It's best to check the manual first to confirm the button's location. I recommend asking the technician to handle this during regular maintenance, otherwise, the icon keeps popping up and can distract you, affecting driving safety.
