Turn the ignition switch to the ON position, then back to the OFF position; then press and hold the "Trip Odometer" reset button on the combination instrument panel; next, turn the ignition switch to the ON position, at which point the maintenance light will first illuminate for 3 seconds, flash for 2 seconds, then illuminate for 1 second before turning off; finally, release the reset button, and the maintenance light reset is complete. Below is relevant information about car maintenance: 1. Car maintenance refers to the periodic preventive work of inspecting, cleaning, replenishing, lubricating, adjusting, or replacing certain parts of the car, also known as car servicing. Current car maintenance mainly includes: maintenance of the engine system, transmission system, air conditioning system, cooling system, fuel system, power steering system, etc. 2. The purpose of car maintenance: to keep the car clean and tidy, maintain normal technical conditions, eliminate hidden dangers, prevent faults, slow down the deterioration process, and extend the service life.
Last year, the maintenance light on my 2017 Corolla came on, and I reset the wrench icon myself. Remember to turn off the engine, then hold down the TRIP button near the steering wheel without releasing it. Next, turn the key to the ON position to illuminate the dashboard but do not start the engine. Hold for a few seconds, and when you see the light flash and then go off, release the button. The Corolla's system is straightforward, and even beginners can give it a try. However, if the maintenance interval hasn't been reached, don’t rush to reset it to avoid delaying necessary checks. Regular maintenance like oil changes protects the engine and reduces wear—my car now runs smoothly even after 100,000 kilometers. This method saves time by avoiding trips to the repair shop. The Corolla series is reliable, and DIY tasks like this boost confidence.
