How to reset the maintenance light for the 2018 Haval H6 1.5T?
2 Answers
Insert the key, just insert it without turning. Press and hold the lever next to the odometer for 5-10 seconds, then turn the power on. After another 5-10 seconds, start the car. Keep holding the lever throughout this process. If the wrench symbol is not cleared, repeat the same procedure a few more times. After maintenance is completed, the technician will reset the maintenance light to zero through the setup program. Manufacturers set different maintenance intervals for different models, so when the maintenance indicator light comes on should be based on the vehicle's user manual.
I've been driving a 2018 Haval H6 1.5T for a while, and the maintenance light coming on is quite annoying. Resetting it yourself is super easy. First, insert the key into the ignition and turn it to the ON position without starting the engine, so all the dashboard lights come on. Then, locate the TRIP button on the dashboard, usually the small button that displays the mileage, hold it down for about 5 seconds, and the maintenance indicator light will start flashing and then turn off. That's it! Resetting just lets the system know you've done the maintenance to avoid constant reminders. A heads-up: the H6 prompts for maintenance every 5,000 km. If you don't reset it promptly, it might mislead you about the next maintenance time. It's best to reset it right after maintenance to help extend the engine's lifespan. Some car owners make mistakes like trying to reset while the engine is running or pressing the wrong button, which can lead to reset failure and require disconnecting the power to try again. I've reset it a few times myself and find it quite practical—no need to visit the dealership.
