I recently reset the maintenance light on my Great Wall VV7 and found the process quite straightforward, so I'd like to share my experience. First, make sure the car is completely turned off, with the engine shut down, and remain seated in the driver's seat without moving. Then, locate the dashboard on the right side of the steering wheel and look carefully for a small button labeled RESET or with a maintenance icon. If you can't find it, check the settings menu. Press and hold that button while turning the key to the ON position, but do not start the engine. Keep an eye on the dashboard, and after about 5 to 10 seconds, you'll see the tiny maintenance light dim and then turn off. Release the button and try starting the car. If the light doesn't come back on, you've succeeded. Remember to check your maintenance records to confirm whether it's time for an oil change or other maintenance tasks; otherwise, the light will come on again. This light is a helpful reminder for timely maintenance, so pay attention to your dashboard while driving to avoid major issues. If the button doesn't work, don't force it—head straight to the 4S shop for professional assistance. They can reset it more reliably using a computer, as safety always comes first.
