Method to reset the maintenance light on Jiangling Transit: 1. First, turn the ignition switch to position 2; 2. Press and hold the trip reset button on the right side of the instrument panel for 3 seconds; 3. Simultaneously press the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal, then hold for 15 seconds. Release the pedals after the maintenance light flashes. The Transit is a light passenger vehicle under Jiangling Ford. This model uses two types of engines: one is a 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine, and the other is a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine. The 2.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine has a maximum power of 89 kW and a maximum torque of 300 Nm, with peak torque available between 1500 and 2000 rpm. The 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine has a maximum power of 148 kW and a maximum torque of 300 Nm, with peak torque available at 3000 rpm.
I've been driving my Jiangling Transit for almost ten years, and I've reset the maintenance light many times. The steps are simple: first, turn the key to the ON position (just power on without starting the engine), then locate the TRIP button on the dashboard, press and hold it for 5 to 10 seconds until the maintenance light goes off, then release. After resetting, remember to check the maintenance records because the light is a reminder to change the oil, filters, etc. Ignoring it can lead to excessive engine carbon buildup, shorter lifespan, and safety risks. I do this every time after maintenance—it becomes a habit and isn’t hard. After all, just like people, cars need regular upkeep to run smoothly and reliably. Also, don’t confuse the button location—on newer models, the TRIP button might be on the steering wheel, so just try manually.
