How to Reset the Maintenance Light on BAIC Vehicles?
2 Answers
First, turn off the ignition switch of the BAIC vehicle. Then, press and hold the trip meter reset button on the BAIC dashboard. It is crucial to keep the button pressed. Next, turn on the ignition switch again while ensuring that the button from step 2 remains pressed. Finally, the BAIC odometer will start counting down. When the display shows 0000.0, immediately release the button to complete the maintenance light reset.
Last time when the maintenance light on my BAIC D50 came on, resetting it was quite easy. First, you need to completely turn off the car, remove the key, and ensure the power is off. Then, locate the small reset button on the dashboard, which might be a triangle or odometer button, and hold it down. Next, turn the key to the second position of the ignition switch, where the dashboard lights up but the engine doesn't start. Wait patiently for 5 to 10 seconds, and you'll usually see the maintenance indicator light flash or turn off. Release the button, turn off the key, and then start the car to check if everything is normal. Different BAIC models may have slight variations, such as the Senova series where the button might be located at the lower right of the steering wheel. If it doesn't work, check the owner's manual for detailed diagrams. Remember, resetting the maintenance light is to record the maintenance cycle and avoid confusion about the next service time, but it doesn't affect driving—it's more of a psychological thing. It's recommended to perform this operation promptly after each maintenance to save trouble next time.
