The steps to reset the maintenance light on Hyundai ix35 are: 1. Turn off the ignition switch; 2. Press the clock adjustment button 'set' while turning on the ignition switch; 3. Release the 'set' button, then press the 'set' button once more; 4. Turn off the ignition switch, then turn it on again to check if the light has been reset. If not, repeat the above steps. Taking the 2021 Hyundai ix35 as an example, it is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged engine, with a maximum horsepower of 160ps and a maximum power of 118kw, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The body dimensions of the 2021 Hyundai ix35 are: length 4500mm, width 1850mm, height 1680mm, with a wheelbase of 2640mm.

As a seasoned car enthusiast who frequently tinkers with vehicles, I find resetting the maintenance light on the Hyundai ix35 quite straightforward. First, turn off the engine and ensure the handbrake is engaged. Then, press and hold the TRIP button on the dashboard without releasing it, while simultaneously turning the key to the ON position—do not start the engine. At this point, you'll notice a small wrench icon flashing on the dashboard. Continue holding the button for about ten seconds until the wrench symbol disappears, indicating the maintenance light has been reset. The whole process feels like completing a level in a game—I was initially worried about pressing the wrong button during my first attempt, but later realized it’s all about hitting the correct one. Note that button locations may vary by model year; for instance, my friend’s 2018 model has the button on the left side of the steering wheel. Remember, resetting the light only removes the reminder—don’t skip the actual maintenance your car needs.

When I worked at a 4S dealership, I frequently helped customers reset their maintenance reminder lights. The most common method was: First, completely turn off the engine and engage the handbrake. Then, press and hold the reset button on the right side of the dashboard with your left hand, while turning the key to the ON position with your right hand (this powers all vehicle systems without starting the engine). When the dashboard begins displaying self-check information, continue holding the reset button for about 7 seconds until the maintenance warning light turns off automatically. Some newer models also support steering wheel button operations, where you need to navigate to the vehicle settings menu to find the reset option. I recommend recording a short video before each operation - if any issues arise, you can still consult the 4S dealership. After resetting, it's best to drive around briefly to confirm the warning light has actually disappeared. Last time, a customer reported the light was still on, which turned out to be due to incomplete operation.

Having studied Hyundai's maintenance system, resetting the service light essentially means restarting the trip computer's counting module. Open the driver's door and sit down, ensuring the gear is in P position. With the engine completely off, locate the ODO/TRIP toggle button beneath the instrument panel. Firmly press and hold this button while turning the key to the ON position—the car will beep during self-check. Maintain pressure for 10 seconds until the wrench icon flashes three times, then release. This successfully resets the maintenance light. Older models may require repeating the process twice; don't panic if nothing happens during the first attempt. After system reset, it's advisable to check the cabin air filter and tire pressure—take this opportunity to address these details while performing the procedure.

How to Use Tire Repair Sealant?

Tire repair sealant can seal the air leak by injecting it into the tire through the valve stem. Here is a related introduction about tire repair sealant: 1. Repair Method: Shake the sealant bottle quickly in your hand for about 1 minute to ensure the liquid is evenly mixed. Then lift the outer tube and align the tube opening with the tire valve. Make sure the valve connection is secure without any air leakage. Tear off the fixing ring on the bottle top and turn on the switch to start the repair process. You can see the white liquid flowing through the tube, which takes little time. 2. Usage Precautions: (1) If you want to stop the process midway while using the sealant, do not directly pull out the tube. Otherwise, the liquid may spray out. First, turn off the switch on the bottle top. (2) If you feel the liquid pressure in the can is insufficient during use, you can first turn off the switch on the bottle top and then shake the bottle vigorously for a few minutes. It is not necessary to remove the air tube.

What does the P0405 fault code mean for the Besturn X80?

The P0405 fault code reported by the Besturn X80 indicates a low circuit in the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Valve Sensor A. Working principle of the EGR valve: The high-pressure gas from the compressor enters the EGR valve and flows through the guide vanes in a spiral pattern. The centrifugal force and gravity separate the lubricating oil from the working gas, which then flows down along the inner wall of the cylinder. The working gas passes through a perforated baffle and is discharged from the central pipe of the EGR valve. The separated lubricating oil accumulates at the bottom of the oil separator and can be periodically drained or automatically returned to the compressor's crankcase via a float valve. Function of the EGR valve: It allows a portion of the exhaust gas to be recirculated back into the engine cylinders for combustion. This small amount of exhaust gas lowers the combustion temperature in the cylinders. Since NOX is generated under high-temperature and oxygen-rich conditions, the EGR valve helps suppress NOX formation, thereby reducing NOX emissions in the exhaust.

Can Blue License Plate Trucks Enter Urban Areas?

Regarding whether blue license plate trucks can enter urban areas, the regulations vary by city. There is no nationwide unified rule, as each city formulates its own traffic restriction measures. In some cities, blue license plate vehicles without a permit are not allowed to enter urban areas at all; in others, non-local blue license plate vehicles are permitted. Military vehicles, police cars, fire trucks, school buses, ambulances, engineering rescue vehicles, and specialized road clearance and accident rescue vehicles from the traffic police department are exempt from restrictions. Additional information: 1. In some cities, local blue license plate vehicles require a permit, while non-local ones are prohibited from entering urban areas; in others, local blue license plate vehicles can enter freely, but non-local ones are barred; and in some cities, there are no restrictions on blue license plate vehicles. 2. Generally, the total mass of blue license plate trucks on the vehicle registration is below 4.5 tons. Here, ordinary trucks under 4.5 tons usually refer to blue license plate trucks with a length of less than 6 meters. These small blue license plate trucks have low requirements for driver's licenses, and drivers with a C1 license can operate them. Therefore, a freight qualification certificate is no longer required to drive such small blue license plate trucks.

How to Control Vehicle Speed in Subject 2?

Methods for speed control in Subject 2 are as follows: 1. Proper foot placement: The heel should rest on the floor as a pivot point, with the ball of the foot positioned at the center of the clutch pedal. This allows for precise clutch engagement and provides support to prevent fatigue, which could affect clutch control. 2. Coordinate clutch and brake: When applying the brake, start with gentle pressure and gradually increase force, avoiding sudden braking that causes abrupt speed reduction. For hill starts, coordinate with the clutch - upon spotting the reference point, quickly depress both clutch and brake. During reverse parking, lightly press the clutch to control power and gently apply the brake when nearing completion to counteract vehicle momentum.

Can Traffic Cameras Capture Images of Not Wearing Seat Belts?

Electronic eyes can capture images of not wearing seat belts. Electronic eye is a common term for the intelligent traffic violation monitoring and management system. It utilizes various technologies such as vehicle inspection, photoelectric imaging, automatic network communication adjustment, and computer processing to monitor violations like running red lights, driving in the wrong direction, speeding, crossing lines, and illegal parking around the clock. It captures images and information of traffic violations and processes them afterwards. Electronic eyes use induction lines to sense the pressure from vehicles on the road, collect signals through sensors to the central processor, and temporarily store them in registers. Regarding not wearing seat belts, cameras continuously capture images, especially at intersections and during driving. Regulations and penalties for not wearing seat belts: Violating Article 4 of the 'Scoring Standards for Road Traffic Safety Violations,' when driving on highways or urban expressways, if the driver fails to wear a seat belt as required; any of the following violations by the driver will result in a 2-point deduction. When driving on urban expressways, if the driver fails to wear a seat belt as required, a fine of 50 yuan and a 2-point deduction will be imposed. When driving on highways, if the driver fails to wear a seat belt as required, a fine of 50 yuan and a 2-point deduction will be imposed. When driving on roads other than highways or urban expressways, if the driver fails to wear a seat belt as required, a fine of 50 yuan will be imposed without point deduction.
