The steps to reset the maintenance light on a Karry K50 are: 1. Turn off the ignition switch to cut off the car's power; 2. Press and hold the reset button on the right side of the dashboard; 3. Turn the ignition switch to the 'ON' position; 4. Continue holding the reset button for a few seconds before releasing it; 5. Press and hold the reset button again and rotate it to the right. The Karry K50 has a body size of 4501mm in length, 1760mm in width, and 1790mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2755mm, a minimum ground clearance of 170mm, a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters, a curb weight of 1230kg, and a 5-door, 5-seat MVP body structure.

I've driven the Karry K50 and found the maintenance light quite annoying when it comes on. There's a simple way to reset it: first completely turn off the car, turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine, then press and hold the TRIP button on the dashboard for a few seconds, usually about 5 seconds until the light goes off. Normally, I do a minor oil change every 5,000 kilometers because this car's engine is fairly basic, and neglecting maintenance can accelerate wear and shorten its lifespan. Remember, even after resetting the light, you still need to actually perform the maintenance, otherwise you're just fooling yourself by turning off the light without changing the oil. Also, don't randomly modify the car's wiring, as it might cause the maintenance system to malfunction and trigger warnings. Regular checks can help your car last longer and save you money.

As someone who enjoys tinkering with cars, I find resetting the K50's maintenance light quite easy. After turning off the engine, rotate the key to the power-on position without starting it, then firmly press and hold the mileage reset button on the left side of the steering wheel for about ten seconds until the light disappears. Don't rush the process—pressing too briefly won't trigger a response. If it doesn't work after a few tries, there might be a wiring issue, and you'll need to visit a repair shop for an OBD tool diagnosis. The maintenance light is essentially a reminder system for part replacements. I make it a habit to check the oil and filter every six months or 7,500 kilometers, which keeps the car running smoothly and improves fuel efficiency.

When the maintenance light comes on while driving the Karry K50, it should be eliminated early to avoid forgetting maintenance. Turn off the ignition key to the ON position without starting, press the TRIP button for a few seconds to turn off the light. I set the maintenance interval to every 6,000 kilometers, exceeding it may damage the engine. Eliminating the light is easy, but maintenance must be done afterwards.
