2 Answers
Honda URV maintenance reminder reset method is as follows: 1. Turn off the ignition switch, insert the ignition key into the slot below the tachometer for reset. 2. Press and hold the button below the instrument panel on the right side of the steering column for 3 seconds to complete the reset operation. 3. Hold down the SELECT and RESET buttons on the right side of the combination instrument panel, turn on the ignition switch, release the buttons after 10 seconds, and the reset is completed. Below is an introduction to the Honda URV: 1. The URV is a product of Dongfeng Honda. The URV continues Honda's family-style design, with the headlights and grille connected under a chrome trim strip, featuring almost identical headlight assemblies. At the rear, the URV adopts a full-width taillight design, giving it a more premium look. 2. Interior: The overall design is quite neat, with a relatively simple central console layout. Additionally, the new car features the same digital instrument panel and three-spoke multifunction steering wheel as the all-new Civic. 3. Powertrain: The Honda URV is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, paired with either a 6-speed manual or CVT continuously variable transmission; maximum power is 143KW (193PS), with a peak torque of 243N·m.
Last time when I helped my brother-in-law reset the maintenance light on his URV, I noticed the procedure varies slightly by model year. For the older 2017 model, it's straightforward using just the steering wheel controls: after turning off the ignition, hold down the small black stalk on the instrument panel without releasing, then power on the electronics until you see the maintenance light flash a few times and turn yellow before letting go and waiting for it to go out. The newer post-2020 models are a bit more complicated: first turn off the engine, then repeatedly press the start button to power up the electronics without starting the engine. Once the instrument cluster fully lights up, immediately press and hold the black stalk for over 10 seconds until you see the prompt change, indicating success. After completing the procedure, remember to lock the car and wait a few minutes before restarting to check—some owners reported failure occurs when the system isn't fully powered down. If it still doesn't work, you might need to check if there's poor contact in the fuse.
