How to Reset the Maintenance Light on Changan?
2 Answers
Steps to reset the maintenance light on Changan: 1. Turn on the ignition, locate the settings menu on the multimedia central control screen, and click to enter the settings menu, then find the vehicle menu; 2. Select maintenance within the vehicle menu, and choose the maintenance reminder function to turn it on or off in the maintenance menu; 3. Adjust by touching the screen, make adjustments in the pop-up menu, and after completing the adjustments, click the reset button at the bottom to finish the reset. As driving time increases, the wear and tear of internal vehicle components gradually becomes more severe. To ensure the normal operation of the car, manufacturers have set up some reminder indicator lights during production. After reaching a certain mileage, the owner should promptly replace the components. After successful replacement, it is necessary to reset the car maintenance light.
I remember after servicing my Changan car, that little wrench icon kept popping up, so annoying! Later, the mechanic taught me this trick: Don't start the car, just turn the key to the power-on position, then press and hold the TRIP button next to the instrument panel for a few seconds before turning off the power. Then try powering on again. However, the buttons may vary for different models—I drive a CS75 Plus, while some older Eado models just require poking the small stalk on the instrument panel a few times. If you really can't figure it out, check the owner's manual—there are detailed step-by-step illustrations at the back. Still stuck? Just visit the 4S store and let the service team clear the code with their computer—it takes two minutes but might cost a fee. If you're doing it yourself, remember to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery for a more stable reset. Once the little wrench disappears after resetting, you can drive with peace of mind.
