How to Reset the Maintenance Light on Honda Jade?

[OZoe]

Steps to reset the maintenance light on Honda Jade are as follows: 1. First, turn off the ignition key and wait for all the lights on the dashboard to go out; 2. Press and hold the button on the right side of the dashboard with your left hand, then turn on the ignition with your right hand without starting the engine; 3. Release the button after the maintenance light goes out automatically. Below is an introduction to the Honda Jade: 1. The dimensions of Dongfeng Honda JADE Jade are 4645/1775/1500mm (length/width/height), with a wheelbase of 2760mm. 2. The vehicle offers two engine options: 1.8L and 2.0L, paired with a CVT transmission. The JADE Jade will initially launch with the 1.8L model.

I've helped friends with several Jades on this, depending on the model year. For older models, use the small stalk on the instrument cluster: With the engine off, hold down the Trip button without releasing, turn the key to the ON position (don't start the engine), wait for the maintenance light to flash, then release. Press and hold the Trip button for about ten seconds until the display disappears. For newer models, use the steering wheel buttons to find the maintenance reset option in the vehicle settings menu. A reminder: disconnecting the battery for half an hour can also reset it, but be cautious of the anti-theft system locking and clock reset. It's best to have a jump starter ready before starting, as last time I encountered voltage instability causing failure to start after reset.

Resetting the maintenance light is actually a pretty straightforward procedure. For the newer Jade models, locate the arrow button on the right side of the steering wheel. With the vehicle powered on but not started, navigate to the maintenance option in the instrument cluster menu and select "Reset Oil Life." For older Jade models, press and hold the cylindrical button below the instrument cluster while turning the ignition to the second position without starting the engine. When the wrench icon starts flashing, continue holding the button for about ten seconds until the indicator light turns off. Keep in mind that resetting won't help if the fluids haven't been changed after maintenance. Also, after resetting, it's best to start the engine and check for any trouble codes. Last time I forgot to properly connect the air filter sensor plug, and the warning light came on.

Follow these three steps: 1. Turn the key to the ON position (all dashboard lights are on but the engine is not started); 2. For older models, locate the small cylinder at the bottom right of the dashboard, while newer models use the steering wheel control buttons to access the maintenance menu; 3. Hold the button for more than 15 seconds until the wrench icon disappears. Key points to note: The operation must be completed within 10 seconds, otherwise it will fail; some models require turning the ignition on and off three times in a row; after resetting, it's best to drive for a while to see if the light comes back on, to avoid a false connection. If you're doing it yourself, buy a set of short-circuit plugs as a backup, and short-circuit the diagnostic interface at the fuse box for an easier process.

The solution varies by model year. For 2014-2016 Jade: With engine off, hold the TRIP button on dashboard while turning key to ON position (don't start), release button when maintenance light flashes, then press and hold for 12+ seconds until light goes off. Post-2017 models with LCD screens are simpler: use steering wheel right button to enter vehicle settings and find oil life reset option. Important note: Never press brake pedal during this process! My neighbor accidentally did it last time and triggered all warning lights. Another trick: Disconnect negative battery terminal for 5 minutes - maintenance light will disappear when reconnected, but this will reset trip computer data.

There are three practical operation methods: The basic version involves disconnecting the negative terminal of the battery for ten minutes, and the maintenance light will automatically disappear upon reconnection (beware of the anti-theft lock). The advanced operation requires using a physical button: For the old Jade, after turning off the engine, press and hold the TRIP button while turning the key to the second position, and keep pressing for 15 seconds after the wrench light flashes and goes out. The high-end version resets through the steering wheel's instrument menu—remember to turn off the start-stop function before proceeding. Key point: If the reset fails, it's likely because the ignition switch isn't properly set in the ON position, and the instrument panel needle must be at the 0 mark. Some vehicles require operating with the spare key turned; models with modified central control screens may have different menu locations, so it's best to check the manual for confirmation.
