How to Reset the Maintenance Reminder for Cadillac?
2 Answers
First, use the multifunction buttons on the right side of the steering wheel to select the oil life in the driver information center. Then, press and hold the selection button 'sel' for a few seconds to reset the maintenance information, setting the engine oil life back to 100%. This completes the maintenance reset operation. Below is additional information: Maintenance Light: The maintenance light is a reminder function set by the manufacturer to alert the vehicle owner to perform maintenance at certain mileage or time intervals. It appears in the form of a dashboard or screen message or indicator light. Resetting the maintenance light means clearing the reminder information after maintenance is completed, effectively resetting the information.
As a seasoned driver, here's a universal method: Start the engine, shift to P gear, and repeatedly press the downward arrow on the right side of the steering wheel until the dashboard displays the 'Oil Life' percentage. Then, hold the triangular arrow button for 10 seconds until the screen shows 'Reset?' and release. Use the up and down arrows to select 'Confirm,' wait for 5 seconds, and it's done. For some models, you need to press the accelerator pedal firmly three times, then press the ignition button twice, and wait until all dashboard lights finish flashing. If the reset fails, you'll need to enter the engineering mode by holding the menu button for 30 seconds without releasing until the English menu appears. Resetting older Cadillac models is that hardcore—experienced drivers can do it in 3 minutes, but beginners are advised to check the manual and avoid random button presses.
