How to reset the maintenance light on a 2020 Geely Icon?

After turning on the ignition, simultaneously press the mode switch and the clock switch to reset the maintenance light. Below is a related introduction to the car maintenance light: 1. Function: The function of the maintenance light is to record the mileage of important components, similar to a timer in a sprint race, serving as a reminder for both the car owner and maintenance personnel. 2. Notes: If related parts are replaced without resetting the maintenance light, the corresponding car maintenance light will not be reset. Although not resetting the light after replacing related parts does not affect the vehicle's performance, it may cause inconvenience for future part replacements, as it would be difficult to accurately track the usage time of the new parts.

Last time I reset the maintenance light on my 2020 Geely ICON by myself, I found it actually quite simple. First, make sure the car is completely turned off, then press and hold the small round button at the lower right corner of the dashboard. At this point, turn the key to the power-on position, but be careful not to start the engine. Hold for about 10 seconds, and you'll see the small wrench icon on the dashboard start flashing. Then release the button and quickly press it once more to confirm, and the maintenance light will go off. The button location may vary for different versions of the car. My neighbor's high-end model requires using the steering wheel buttons. It's advisable to check the owner's manual in the glove box to confirm the button location before your first attempt. The whole process takes just half a minute, much more convenient than going to the dealership. If the light remains on after resetting, it might be because the last maintenance wasn't fully reset, or there could be a minor issue with the car's computer that needs checking.

Just helped a friend reset the maintenance light on his Geely ICON a couple of days ago. The steps are easy to remember: First, turn off the engine, then immediately press and hold the reset button on the right side of the instrument panel. At the same time, turn the key to the ignition position (instrument panel lights up but the engine doesn't start), and keep holding the button. Watch the instrument panel for about ten seconds until the maintenance indicator light flashes, then release the button. Quickly press the button again to confirm. I noticed that the button location varies between different batches of models—some are on the edge of the instrument panel, while others are hidden among the steering wheel shortcut buttons. Make sure the car is in Park (P) with the handbrake engaged during the process, as operating it in gear might cause it to fail. The whole process is quicker than restarting a phone, and doing it yourself saves a trip to the repair shop. It's also a good opportunity to check the brake fluid level for extra peace of mind.

Resetting the Geely ICON maintenance light is actually a three-step process: turn off the ignition and press the instrument button, power on while keeping it pressed until the light flashes, then release and press again to confirm. The button is usually located at the lower right of the dashboard, dot-shaped. The key is to start the operation with the ignition off, and keep pressing steadily for ten seconds after powering on. When you see the yellow wrench icon flashing, you're mostly successful. It's recommended to check the maintenance light when inspecting tire pressure monthly, so you can detect and reset it early. If you can't find the button, take a photo of the dashboard with your phone, and a mechanic can point it out at a glance.

Several details to note when resetting the maintenance light on the 2020 ICON: Operation must be performed with the engine completely shut off and fully stopped. Use the fleshy part of your finger to apply even pressure on the reset button—avoid using fingernails. Continue holding after powering on; a ticking sound from the dashboard indicates normal operation. Don't release the button immediately when the maintenance light flashes—wait for three flashes before letting go to confirm. After successful reset, it's best to start the engine and drive two kilometers to ensure system updates. During rainy seasons, the button tends to be slippery—wiping your fingers dry ensures more reliable operation. If repeated attempts fail, check the fuse box located below the driver's seat on the left side.

My experience is that timing is crucial when resetting the maintenance light for the Geely ICON. The highest success rate is achieved when the engine is cold. If you've just completed a long trip, it's best to wait half an hour before attempting the reset. Remember not to press the brake pedal during the entire process; simply turn the key to the ON position. The specific steps are: turn off the engine and press the button → maintain pressure while powering on → wait for the dashboard lights to flash → release to confirm. Some car owners have reported that the base model requires holding the button for 15 seconds before the lights flash, so don't hesitate to try a few times if needed. After resetting, the system will perform a self-check upon the next ignition. If the maintenance light doesn't come on at this point, the reset was truly successful. As a side note, vehicles with modified digital instrument clusters may have different reset procedures, so it's advisable to consult the modification shop.
