I've been driving the Fengjun 7 for several years, and every time after maintenance, I have to deal with that light. It's a bit annoying but not too difficult. Here are the steps to reset it: First, sit in the driver's seat and turn off the ignition to ensure the car is completely shut down. Then, press and hold the TRIP button on the dashboard with your finger—don't let go. Next, turn the key to the ON position (just power on without starting the engine). At this point, you'll notice the maintenance light starts flashing or changing color. Keep holding the button for about 5 to 10 seconds until the light goes off, then you can release it. If it doesn't work the first time, it might be due to timing; just try again. I recommend checking your specific model year because different versions of the Fengjun 7 might have slight variations. It's best to refer to the owner's manual for confirmation. If you're really unsure, don't force it to avoid causing electrical issues. A quick and safe solution is to visit a repair shop and let a professional handle it. Also, make sure to maintain your car on schedule, regularly changing the oil and filters, so the light won't give false alerts and your driving experience remains smooth.
