Arrizo GX maintenance light reset method: 1. With the ignition key in the off position; 2. Press and hold the two overlapping square buttons on the right side of the steering wheel, then turn the ignition switch to the ON position while keeping the buttons pressed. After holding for 5 seconds, the maintenance light will reset; 3. Have it reset at a 4S dealership. The Arrizo GX is a compact car under the Chery brand, equipped with two engine options: a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5L turbocharged engine, paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a CVT transmission. In terms of dimensions, the Arrizo GX measures 4700mm in length, 1825mm in width, 1482mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2670mm.
A few days ago, I helped a friend reset the maintenance light on his Arrizo GX—it was super simple. First, sit in the driver’s seat without starting the engine, just turn the key to the ON position until the dashboard lights up. Then, locate the small button near the instrument cluster, usually the same knob used to adjust the odometer, press and hold it for about 10 seconds, and the maintenance light will turn off by itself. This manual reset method works for most car models, though the 2019 Arrizo GX had some design tweaks, so if you’re unsure, check the owner’s manual to avoid mistakes. The maintenance light reminds you to change the oil or get a check-up—don’t ignore actual maintenance just because the light’s off, or your car will wear out faster. I think DIY saves time and money, but if the button doesn’t respond, it might be a loose wire; otherwise, just take it to the dealership. Make resetting the light a habit to avoid distractions while driving.
I've been driving the Arrizo GX for two years now, and when the maintenance light comes on, I reset it myself—pretty convenient. First, turn off the engine, then turn the key to power on without starting the ignition. Next, locate the TRIP button on the dashboard, press and hold it for 15 seconds before releasing. Usually, the light will go off. The first time I tried, it didn’t work because my hand shook and I released it too early, but the second time, with a bit more patience, it worked. This method is more suited for experienced owners; younger drivers might prefer the electronic models where you can reset it via the steering wheel buttons in the settings menu. Resetting the light right after maintenance helps extend the car's lifespan and saves on unnecessary garage fees. If it fails, don’t force it—check forums for tips from fellow owners or consult a mechanic. Safety first—don’t start dismantling things randomly.
