How to Reset the Maintenance Light on a JAC Refine S2?

[DeEsther]

Automobiles are consumable products that require regular maintenance to extend their service life. When the maintenance light comes on, it indicates that the vehicle needs servicing, and the light can be reset after maintenance. The specific steps to reset the maintenance light on a JAC Refine S2 are as follows: 1. Turn on the ignition switch. 2. While holding down the reset button, turn off the ignition switch. 3. Continue holding the reset button until the clock and mileage on the dashboard completely disappear, then release the button. 4. Press and hold the reset button again, then turn on the ignition switch. 5. At this point, the maintenance light on the dashboard will flash. Keep holding the reset button until the light stops flashing, then release the button to reset the maintenance light.

In my previous JAC Refine S2, the maintenance light always stayed on even after servicing, which was quite annoying. I figured out how to fix it a few times: first, turn off the engine, insert the key and turn it to the ACC position, wait for the dashboard to light up but don’t start the car. Then, press and hold the trip reset button (usually located at the lower right corner of the dashboard, resembling a small wheel) for about 5 seconds while keeping an eye on the maintenance light—release the button immediately once it blinks and goes off. If it doesn’t work the first time, try repeating the process. I’ve tried forgetting to hold the button long enough, resulting in wasted effort; it’s best to check the owner’s manual for more precise steps. The maintenance light is a reminder for regular servicing—don’t ignore it to avoid unexpected breakdowns. After resetting it yourself, take a short drive to ensure the light is truly off. Develop a habit of checking the engine oil and filters regularly to keep the maintenance cycle uninterrupted. Remember, safety first—stay focused while performing these steps.

I just picked up my JAC Refine S2 not long ago, and I find the maintenance light coming on quite annoying. Once a friend taught me this trick: turn the key to the ON position (that's the self-check mode), but don't press the brake to start the engine. Then, use your fingers to press the button combination on the dashboard—for example, hold the left button and the clock adjustment button together for a few seconds until the light flashes and disappears, indicating it's done. Common mistakes include uneven button pressing or holding for too short a time. If it doesn't work the first time, just try again. After the maintenance light goes off, it reminds you it's time to change the oil and such—don't delay until it becomes a big issue. Doing it yourself saves money, but the car manual is the bible; flipping through it will make things clear. Always pay attention to your car's condition for prevention, don't wait until the light comes on to panic. This method is simple and safe, and you can do it when the car is parked.

To reset the maintenance light on the JAC Refine S2, I've seen many car owners' methods: turn off the engine, rotate the key to the power-on position (usually the ACC position), but don't start the engine. Press and hold the reset or setting button on the dashboard for 5 to 10 seconds, observe the light changes, and release the button once it turns off. Be careful not to press for too long to avoid damaging the dashboard. The maintenance light is a warning that the service is overdue. After resetting, be sure to check if the vehicle is functioning properly. If you can't reset it yourself, it might be due to a fuse or system malfunction, in which case you'll need to visit a repair shop. Regular maintenance can extend the vehicle's lifespan, so don't ignore this reminder for the sake of convenience.

Last time my JAC Refine S2's maintenance light came on, I went through a bit of trouble to fix it – insert the key into the ACC position (dashboard lights on but engine not started), then press and hold the small button on the center console for about 7 seconds until the light flashes and goes off. It's advisable to sit still and be careful during the operation to avoid pressing the wrong buttons in a flurry; the car manual has steps for different models, so refer to that. Resetting the maintenance light is a small trick, but it reminds you to maintain the wheels, filters, etc., which shouldn't be taken lightly. Always check fluid levels before driving to prevent small issues from becoming big ones. The reset process is simple and quick, can be done right at your doorstep, and is safe and reliable.

The method to reset the maintenance light on the JAC Refine S2 has been tested, safety first: Sit firmly in the turned-off car, turn the key to the ACC position to power on, but do not start the engine. Then press and hold the knob on the dashboard for more than 5 seconds, observe the maintenance light goes off before releasing. Don’t rush during the operation; pressing the wrong spot can easily lead to mistakes. While resetting the maintenance light is good, don’t forget to go for the actual maintenance and part replacements, otherwise the car's performance may decline. Doing it yourself saves money and time, and the car manual is the key reference. After each reset, take a short test drive to confirm the light doesn’t come back on. Cultivate the good habit of regular maintenance, and the car will run smoother.
