Below are the steps to reset the maintenance light on the 2018 CR-V: 1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position. Then repeatedly press the information display button on the steering wheel until the word 'Maintenance' appears on the instrument display. 2. Press the Enter button on the steering wheel once, and the message 'Engine Oil Monitor' will appear on the instrument panel. Hold down the Enter button on the steering wheel for about 10 seconds, and the vehicle's maintenance indicator light will be reset. 3. Once the vehicle's maintenance is due, the maintenance reminder light will illuminate to alert the owner to perform maintenance. After the maintenance is completed, the maintenance light needs to be reset. Only after the reset is completed can the maintenance light be cleared, ensuring it correctly reminds you when the next maintenance is due.
When it comes to resetting the maintenance light on my 2018 CR-V, I do it myself every time. The steps are simple: First, turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine, and the dashboard will light up. Then, locate the selection button or knob on the right side of the steering wheel, press it to enter the menu, scroll to 'Vehicle Settings,' and select 'Maintenance Info Reset.' Hold it for a few seconds until the light flashes, then release, and the light will go off. This light is just a reminder that it's time for maintenance, like changing the oil every 5,000 kilometers. After resetting, it’s much quieter. Never ignore actual maintenance—the CR-V is tough and durable, but if you don’t change the oil, the engine will wear out faster. I’ve driven this car for three years and check it every month. Once you get into the habit, it saves money and keeps you safe.
