How to reset the maintenance light on Chery Karry?
3 Answers
To reset the maintenance light on Chery Karry, follow these steps: 1. Insert the key and press the small button on the right side (the small black lever on the dashboard used for adjusting time and resetting mileage), then turn the key to the ON position. 2. Hold the small button for a few seconds, release it, then press and gently rotate the button to the right before releasing it. The Karry brand is a high-performance microcar brand launched by Chery. Taking the Karry K60 as an example: its body length is 4618mm, width is 1790mm, height is 1760mm, wheelbase is 2765mm, and it is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission.
Last time I helped my dad reset the maintenance light on his Karry van, it was pretty straightforward. The general method is: don't start the car, just turn the key to the ON position without pressing the accelerator to start. At this point, all the dashboard lights will illuminate. Look for a small wrench icon flashing - that's the maintenance light. Then locate the trip reset button near the steering wheel or the information display button, press and hold it for a few seconds, and the icon should turn off. If this doesn't work, you might need to repeat the process or check the owner's manual. I've handled similar procedures with other Chery vehicles before. The maintenance light mainly serves as a reminder for regular oil changes, brake inspections, etc. Don't ignore it, otherwise the car might develop issues like increased fuel consumption or engine wear. If you're unsure, it's best to take a photo and send it to the 4S shop for confirmation - that's the safer approach.
I'm just a DIY enthusiast who loves tinkering with my car. To reset the maintenance light, first determine the model of your Karry vehicle, as the steps are similar for most models: turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine, then observe the dashboard. If the wrench light isn't on, it might already be past the maintenance period. Next, locate the adjustment button on the dashboard, usually a small button on the left or right side, press and hold it for about 5-10 seconds until the light goes off, then release. This won't harm the car and is a simple way to save money instead of going to the dealership. Remember, maintenance is crucial—check the oil or filter every 5,000 kilometers, and stick to the schedule even after resetting the light. I didn't maintain my car properly before, and ended up spending a lot on repairs due to a loose chain. It was a hard lesson, so I recommend regularly checking the manual to prevent minor issues.
