To reset the maintenance light on the Changan CS75 manually, follow these steps: 1. Turn on the vehicle's power, then locate the selection button on the multifunction steering wheel and press it. 2. Next, hold down the reset button for 5 seconds without releasing it, then turn off the vehicle's power. 3. Do not release the reset button while turning off the power, then turn the vehicle's power back on to complete the reset. The Changan CS75 has dimensions of 4650mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1715mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. It is a 5-door, 5-seater SUV with a 6-speed manual transmission, front-wheel drive, and electric power steering.
Last time when I did maintenance for my Changan CS75, I spent a long time studying the manual reset method and finally figured it out! First, sit in the car and turn the key completely off without starting the engine. Then press and hold the small button on the right side of the instrument panel (the one for adjusting the odometer), don't release it. Next, turn the key to the power-on position, all the dashboard lights will illuminate, continue holding the button for about 5 seconds, and you'll see the wrench icon start flashing. Release the button and quickly press it again, and the maintenance light will go off! The whole process takes just half a minute. However, note that the button position may differ between new and old models - my neighbor's 2022 version has a dedicated button on the steering wheel. Doing it myself saved the time of queuing at the 4S shop and also allowed me to learn some automotive knowledge.
As someone who frequently tinkers with cars, I’d like to share the detailed steps for resetting the maintenance light on the Changan CS75: First, you must turn off the engine and remove the key. Second, locate the combination switch behind the steering wheel or the button area on the instrument panel. Third, press and hold the “TRIP” button or the mileage reset button (usually located at the lower right corner of the instrument panel in the CS75). Fourth, turn the key to the ACC power-on position without pressing the brake pedal. Fifth, continue holding the button for about 10 seconds until the warning light on the instrument panel flashes. Sixth, release the button and press it once more to confirm completion. I’ve used this method to reset the maintenance light on my own and my friends’ CS75s three times, and it’s very reliable. If it doesn’t respond, it might be a newer model requiring operation through the steering wheel menu. As a side note, it’s best to record the maintenance date after resetting, as it greatly benefits engine health.
