Here are the specific steps to reset the maintenance light on a Nissan Murano: 1. Insert the key, but do not turn it. 2. Press and hold the trip odometer reset button for 5-10 seconds, then turn the ignition to the "ON" position. 3. After another 5-10 seconds, start the engine. Keep holding the reset button throughout this process. 4. If the wrench indicator does not disappear, repeat the procedure several times. 5. Note that maintenance intervals vary by manufacturer and model. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for the correct maintenance schedule. After servicing, technicians can reset the maintenance light using the proper procedure.

Last time when I was driving my Nissan Murano, the maintenance light came on. I knew I had to reset it promptly, otherwise it keeps reminding you and it's really annoying. The operation is quite simple: First, sit in the car, turn the key to the ON position, but don’t start the engine. Then, look at the dashboard, there’s an ODO or TRIP button, press and hold it for about 5 to 10 seconds until the maintenance light blinks or turns off completely, which means it’s successful. After that, just turn off the key. I remember the first time I made a mistake by starting the engine, and the light didn’t respond, so you must operate it in the ON position. This light is the system reminding you to change the oil or perform other maintenance. Regular reset ensures accurate timing and avoids false alarms next time. I usually do it myself to save the hassle and cost of going to the 4S shop. I generally reset it every six months along with regular maintenance, and the car runs smoother. Oh, and if the light doesn’t go off, check the manual to confirm the exact button position, as it might vary slightly between different models. Safety first, don’t mess around.

I've been driving a Nissan Murano for years and am very familiar with the maintenance light reset procedure. The key is standardized operation: Sit in the driver's seat, make sure the car is in P gear, then turn the ignition switch to ON mode (do not start the engine). Next, locate the TRIP button in the center of the dashboard, press and hold it with your hand, wait patiently for a few seconds—the light usually turns off automatically after about seven or eight seconds. It's best to watch the dashboard light changes during operation to avoid distractions. After resetting, it means the system has recalibrated the next maintenance reminder time. If you frequently encounter the light coming on without resetting, there might be a system fault or sensor issue that requires prompt inspection. As an owner, I recommend following the vehicle manual for regular execution—it helps you reasonably plan oil change intervals, such as every 5,000 kilometers or every six months. This extends engine life and saves both hassle and money. Once, I forgot to reset it, causing reminder confusion, but timely handling afterward prevented major issues.

Resetting the maintenance light is simple: first, turn the key to ON without starting the engine. Hold the ODO button on the dashboard for a few seconds until the light goes out. This prevents false reminders and system confusion. Ensure safety and patience during the operation, keeping the vehicle stable. After resetting, the system will recalibrate the reminder interval for the next maintenance, such as routine oil changes and inspections, to keep the car in good condition. If it doesn't work on the first try, attempt a couple more times or refer to the manual to confirm the steps. Don't worry about it being too troublesome—it saves time and effort in daily use.
