3 Answers
Here are the steps to reset the maintenance light on a Haval H2: 1. Press the one-touch start button to power on the vehicle, then press the MODE button on the left side of the multifunction steering wheel. 2. Next, press the SET button on the right side of the multifunction steering wheel and the OK button on the left side of the steering wheel. 3. Finally, observe the vehicle dashboard, and you will notice that the maintenance reminder light has been reset. Additional information: The Haval H2 is a compact SUV launched by Haval, a sub-brand of Great Wall Motors. With body dimensions of 4330/1815/1700mm, it closely approaches the size of a compact SUV. The Haval H2 is the first domestic model to adopt a mix-and-match design concept.
I previously performed the maintenance light reset for my Haval H2 myself. Before starting, remember to turn on the vehicle but don't press the accelerator. Locate the small cylindrical button on the right side of the instrument panel in the driver's seat—the one used to toggle the odometer. Press and hold it for about ten seconds without releasing; you'll see the wrench icon on the instrument panel start flashing. At this point, release the button, turn off the ignition, and restart the vehicle to find the maintenance light has disappeared. However, note that the procedure may vary slightly for different model years of the H2. For example, my neighbor's 2018 model requires using the menu button on the steering wheel. If you can't manage it, just take it to a repair shop and let the technician handle it with a computer—avoid tampering with the wiring yourself.
As someone who frequently works with Haval models, I've found that resetting the maintenance light hinges on locating the correct physical buttons. First, shift to P gear with the engine running. The difference between older and newer models lies in: For pre-2015 H2 models, use the rotary knob on the right side of the instrument cluster - turn it clockwise to the end and hold for 20 seconds. For newer models, use the selector button on the left side of the steering wheel - press rapidly three times to enter engineering mode. I recommend checking the warning light section in the maintenance manual before operating, as some owners accidentally press the tire pressure monitoring button and end up locking the system. After resetting, don't forget to update the maintenance cycle records, such as recalculating the engine oil life.
