The method to reset the maintenance light on the Great Wall H4: 1. Turn off the car key and press the button at the lower right of the dashboard without releasing it; 2. With the other hand, turn on the key and wait for all dashboard indicator lights to illuminate—the small wrench icon on the dashboard will stop flashing at this point; 3. Release the button, then press the button at the lower left of the dashboard to reset the maintenance light. The Great Wall H4 is positioned as a compact SUV, incorporating the brand's family-style design philosophy with a muscular side profile and a full rear design featuring a continuous taillight setup. Inside, the H4 features a four-spoke steering wheel, an asymmetrical layout, and a 9-inch floating central touchscreen that adds a strong sense of design. The piano-key-style buttons below the central screen are uniquely styled.
I remember driving my Great Wall H4 for several years, and resetting the maintenance light is actually quite simple, but you need to be careful to avoid mistakes. First, sit in the driver's seat, insert the key into the ignition switch, and turn it to the ON position—this is when the dashboard lights come on but the engine doesn't start. Then locate the small button near the steering wheel, usually the TRIP or RESET button, press and hold it without releasing for about 5 to 10 seconds. You'll see the maintenance light on the dashboard flash and change. When it completely turns off, it means the reset is successful. If the light doesn't go off due to improper operation, try repeating the process or check the owner's manual to confirm the button's location. I recommend doing this in a safe place, like a parking garage, to avoid distractions while driving. Resetting the light ensures timely reminders for the next maintenance, protects the engine from wear due to neglected upkeep, extends the car's lifespan, and saves both money and hassle—why not do it?
