2 Answers
The method to reset the maintenance light on Borgward BX5 is: Press and hold the scroll wheel on the right side of the steering wheel while the engine is off. The Borgward BX5 is a compact SUV with body dimensions of 4490mm in length, 1877mm in width, 1675mm in height, a wheelbase of 2685mm, and a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 110kW at 5500rpm and a maximum torque of 250Nm between 1750 to 4000rpm.
I recently dealt with the maintenance light issue on the Borgward BX5, and it was quite a hassle. First, you need to start the vehicle to power up the dashboard, but remember not to press the brake when starting—just press the start button twice. Then, hold down the RESET button on the left side of the steering wheel for about 7 seconds (I counted), and the dashboard will pop up a prompt menu. You'll see a small wrench icon labeled 'Reset'—quickly press the button on the right side of the steering wheel to confirm. The whole process requires fast hands; if the power cuts off midway, you'll have to start over. By the way, last time a car owner didn't follow the steps correctly and ended up not clearing the maintenance light while accidentally triggering the tire pressure calibration, which was counterproductive. If you really can't manage it, it's safer to drive to the 4S店 and let them use their computer to reset it—after all, professional equipment ensures the most thorough fix.
