Method to reset the maintenance light on the Leiling 1.2T: 1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position; 2. Press and hold the maintenance light reset button, then rotate until the trip meter A appears; 3. Turn off the ignition switch; 4. Press and hold the maintenance light reset button while rotating, then turn the ignition switch to the ON position again; 5. Turn off the ignition switch, press and hold the maintenance light reset button and rotate until the mileage is reset. After 5 seconds, trip meter A will display "000000", indicating the maintenance light has been successfully reset. Taking the 2021 CVT Luxury Edition Leiling as an example: The manufacturer of this vehicle is GAC Toyota, with a body length, width, and height of 4640mm, 1780mm, and 1455mm respectively, a wheelbase of 2700mm, equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, and matched with a CVT continuously variable transmission.
I just performed a maintenance light reset on my Levin 1.2T, and the operation was actually quite simple, just a few steps. First, make sure the car is completely turned off with no lights on the dashboard. Then, press and hold the 'Trip' button on the steering wheel (located near the dashboard). While holding the button, turn the key to the 'ON' position without starting the engine. At this point, a wrench-shaped indicator light on the dashboard will flash once. After it finishes flashing, release the 'Trip' button and quickly press it again. If you hear a 'beep' sound or see the indicator light turn off, it means the reset was successful. Give it a try yourself; if it doesn't work the first time, try a couple more times. Just remember not to press any other buttons before turning off the power. By the way, this maintenance light is a reminder for an oil change. After resetting, the system will recalculate the mileage. Before the next maintenance, it's recommended to check the manual to confirm the service interval.
To reset the maintenance light on the Leiling 1.2T, here's my usual method: Turn the key to the first position (accessory mode) without starting the engine. Then, press and hold the 'Trip' button on the instrument panel with your right hand while gently tapping the start button with your left hand (don't press the brake). Watch the screen carefully - when the maintenance reminder flashes for a few seconds, release the button. The light usually turns off within seconds. If it doesn't respond, power off and restart the process. Important: Always verify the maintenance was actually completed before resetting, otherwise the system's calculations will be disrupted. Toyota's design is quite user-friendly, allowing DIY reset without diagnostic tools - unlike some German cars that require dealership visits. Remember to regularly check engine oil and filters to maintain optimal vehicle condition.
