How to reset the maintenance light on the Buick GL6?

[LeRiver]

To reset the maintenance light on the Buick GL6: 1. Turn on the ignition with the engine off. 2. Use the "MENU" button and the scroll wheel to navigate to the "Oil Life" display on the instrument panel. 3. Press and hold the "SET/CLR" button for several seconds to reset the oil life to 100%. (The "SET/CLR" button is indicated by the arrow in the image above.) 4. Turn off the ignition to complete the reset. Note: The system should be reset every time the engine oil is changed so that it can calculate the next engine oil change interval.

The maintenance light on my Buick GL6 has come on several times, and I've managed to reset it myself every time. First, turn off the engine, then locate the button similar to the info key on the left side of the steering wheel and hold it down firmly. Next, turn the key to the ON position (without starting the engine), and all the dashboard lights will illuminate. Keep holding the button for 10 to 15 seconds, and the maintenance light will turn off by itself. After completing the reset, it's best to start the car to check if the light has truly disappeared. If it's still on, it might be due to pressing the wrong button or performing the steps too quickly; the manual explains this clearly. If you've lost the manual, you can look up video tutorials online. Don't panic when the maintenance light comes on—it's just a reminder and doesn't affect driving. However, timely maintenance is good for the car, so I make sure to visit the 4S shop on schedule every year.

As someone who loves tinkering with cars, I'm very familiar with resetting the maintenance light on the Buick GL6. The key lies in the sequence: After turning off the engine, press and hold the multifunction button on the driver information center—usually a small round button on the steering wheel. Then quickly turn the key to the ACC position without starting the engine. Watch for changes on the dashboard; once the display changes, continue holding for about 5 seconds, and the light will go off. The operation is simple, but make sure not to press the wrong button. For older models, a specific button combination might be required. If the light doesn't reset after trying, it could be a fuse issue—don't force it. The maintenance light is just a reminder for regular servicing; don't ignore it out of laziness. I recommend checking the oil and filter every 5,000 kilometers.

The maintenance light reset procedure for the Buick GL6 is quite simple. After turning off the engine, press and hold the INFO button on the steering wheel while turning the key to the ON position (without starting the engine). The light will turn off within 10 seconds. Be careful not to press too long or too briefly. After completing the procedure, test drive the vehicle to confirm everything is working properly. This light serves as a reminder for scheduled maintenance - resetting it is convenient, but don't forget to book your maintenance appointment.
