To reset the vehicle maintenance light, first start the vehicle to illuminate the instrument panel. With the engine turned off, press and hold the short-distance counter reset button located below the tachometer. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, then release the short-distance counter reset button. The display will show the "SERVICE" indicator. Turn off the engine to reset the reminder message. Then turn the ignition switch back to the ON position.

Back when I drove the Fengon 580, I also researched how to reset the maintenance light. You need to use the buttons on the steering wheel. First, power on the car without starting the engine. You'll see the wrench icon on the dashboard, right? Hold down the up/down arrow button on the right side of the steering wheel, and with your other hand, press the phone icon button. After about 5 seconds, you'll notice the wrench icon flashes a few times and disappears. The procedure might vary slightly for different model years—if it doesn't work, try the button combination a few more times or check the manual. Paying attention to your maintenance schedule is actually quite important. When the light comes on, change the oil and filter on time—it helps extend the engine's lifespan. Just remember to reset it only after the maintenance is done, not just to turn off the light.

Last time I helped my neighbor reset the maintenance light on their Fengon 580, and the zeroing operation is actually quite straightforward. Get in the car, turn the key to the ON position to illuminate the dashboard without starting the engine. Observe the dashboard to locate the maintenance reminder symbol resembling a small wrench. Then, with your left hand, press and hold the round selection button on the right side of the steering wheel, while quickly pressing the return arrow button with your right hand. Hold for about 3-4 seconds until the indicator light goes off, then release. During the process, the dashboard might display a setup menu—just ignore it. After successful reset, it's advisable to start the vehicle to confirm the warning light doesn't reappear. Doing it yourself can save a trip to the repair shop, but if the light comes back shortly after maintenance, it's worth checking if there's an actual issue.

To reset the maintenance reminder light for the Fengon 580, follow these three steps: 1. Insert the key and turn it to the ON position (dashboard powers on but engine remains off); 2. Press and hold the round confirmation button in the center of the multifunction area on the right side of the steering wheel; 3. Quickly press the volume down button three times with your other hand. Watch for the wrench icon on the dashboard to flash and then disappear—the entire process takes about 6 seconds. This procedure applies to automatic transmission models from 2016 to 2019. For manual transmission models, hold the confirmation button and press the menu button instead. After resetting, remember to drive for a while to verify. Resetting the maintenance reminder is a routine operation, but don’t neglect actual maintenance needs.

Actually, the maintenance light is just a preset mileage counter. The core of resetting it on the Fengguang 580 lies in triggering the dashboard's reset procedure. First, ensure the vehicle is in the power-on state. The button combinations vary across different model versions: for older models, you need to press and hold the MODE button and volume down button on the steering wheel simultaneously, while newer models may require pressing the confirm button plus the return button. During operation, pay attention to whether the LCD screen pops up a maintenance reset prompt. Once it appears, rotate the confirm button to select 'Yes'. Some owners report needing to repeat the operation several times to succeed, possibly due to inaccurate timing of button presses. After resetting, it's advisable to record the current mileage, and calculate the next maintenance interval based on the manual's recommendation of 5,000 or 7,500 kilometers for better reliability.

Just did the maintenance light reset for my sister's Fengon 580 last week. For our female owners, remember these key points: First, make sure the car is in a warmed-up state after starting, wait until all icons are displayed on the dashboard. Locate the round button with arrows on the right side of the steering wheel, press and hold it firmly with your left hand, then quickly tap the phone icon button next to it twice with your right hand. At this point, that annoying little yellow wrench will flash three times and then go out, as simple as deleting a pop-up on your phone. The first time I tried, it didn't work because I forgot to put the gear shift into P position. After resetting, take a moment to flip through the vehicle manual to confirm maintenance items—after all, oil life is what really matters most.
