WU_BA_QI_CHE_PIC_PLACE_HOLDER The method to reset the maintenance light on Lancer EX is as follows: Start the car and power on the dashboard. Press and hold the button on top of the Mitsubishi Lancer EX's wiper for about ten seconds, and the maintenance light on the dashboard will be reset. When the maintenance light on the Lancer EX's dashboard illuminates, it indicates that the vehicle requires maintenance. The routine maintenance items include the following three aspects: 1. Replace the engine oil, oil filter, and air filter. 2. Replace consumable rubber parts and components subject to gradual wear. 3. Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the vehicle and repair any worn areas.
To reset the maintenance reminder light on a Mitsubishi Lancer, I usually follow these steps: First, turn the ignition key to the ON position, which means the dashboard lights up but don't start the engine. Then locate the ODO button on the dashboard (the one that displays the mileage), press and hold it for about 10 seconds. You'll see the maintenance light start flashing or turn off. At this point, release the button, and the light will be reset. Don't rush off—make sure the mileage is displaying normally to avoid any accidental mishandling. As a frequent DIY car owner, I recommend resetting it immediately after maintenance. This light is a reminder for regular upkeep, like oil changes, and if not reset, it will keep blinking annoyingly. Overall, it's quite simple, and most Mitsubishi models are similar, but it's best to check the owner's manual for details if you have one handy. Don't slack on regular maintenance—keeping your car well-maintained extends its lifespan and saves money in the long run.
