Fiat Viaggio maintenance light reset procedure: First turn on the ignition switch, press the reset button on the left instrument panel, wait a few minutes until "Maintenance Completed" is displayed. When the instrument panel goes blank with the clock and trip meter fully reset, release the button. Then press and hold the reset button again while turning the ignition switch to ON position. When the maintenance indicator on the instrument panel starts flashing continuously, keep holding the reset button until the warning light stops flashing, then release the button.

I remember helping a friend reset the maintenance light on his Fiat Viaggio like this: First, make sure the car is completely turned off and the key is removed. Then locate the small dashboard button on the center console and hold it down without releasing. Next, turn the key to the ON position, where the dashboard lights up but the engine doesn't start. Watch the dashboard, and after about 5 seconds, a countdown sequence of numbers will appear, starting from 10 and counting down to 0. Once the countdown finishes, release the button and immediately turn off the power. Then restart the car, and the little wrench icon should be gone. If it doesn’t work, try it again once or twice—the key is to press the button firmly, as some older cars have less responsive buttons. After doing this, it’s a good idea to note down the maintenance mileage and get into the habit of checking the oil level.

Resetting the Fiat Viaggio maintenance light is quite simple and can be done at home in just one minute. First, ensure the car is completely turned off and the key is removed. Locate the small cylindrical button at the bottom left of the dashboard and press it firmly with your entire palm without releasing. Then, insert the key and turn it to the power-on position, being careful not to press the brake to start the engine. Keep your eyes on the dashboard, where you'll see a countdown progress bar from 10 to 0. Wait until it finishes and disappears automatically before releasing the button. After completing these steps, turn off the power and restart the car to check. If the wrench icon is gone, it means the reset was successful. Remember, don't rely solely on the maintenance light for upkeep; it's recommended to manually check the oil dipstick every 5,000 kilometers, as the maintenance light is more of a reminder tool.

The maintenance light reset methods for Fiat models are generally similar. First, ensure the vehicle is turned off, then press and hold the reset button on the left side of the dashboard. Turn the key to the ignition position without starting the engine, and observe the dashboard for a 10-second countdown. Release the button once the countdown ends, turn off the power, and then restart the vehicle. If unsuccessful, check three points: whether the button is stuck and not pressed all the way down; whether the key is turned to the correct position; and whether the battery voltage is sufficient. Older vehicles may have poor button contact, so wiping the interface with a damp cloth can help. It is advisable to record the odometer reading before and after the operation for easier calculation of the next maintenance cycle.
