How to reset the maintenance wrench light on a 2020 Honda Envix?
2 Answers
First, turn off the ignition switch to cut off the car's power. Then, press and hold both trip meter reset buttons on the instrument panel simultaneously for more than 5 seconds. Turn the key to the second position (without starting the engine) until all the dashboard lights illuminate, which should take about 10 seconds. Wait for the wrench light to go off, then release both trip meter reset buttons. Finally, turn off the ignition switch and restart the car to complete the maintenance reset.
When I first drove the Honda Envix, the 2019 model, the maintenance wrench light would come on, and my friend taught me how to reset it. First, you need to turn off the engine, then turn the key to the position where the dashboard lights up, but don’t start the engine. Next, find the small button on the left side of the steering wheel—it might be for displaying mileage or accessing the menu, as it varies slightly by model year, but the 2019 to 2020 models are generally similar. I usually press and hold it for 5 seconds, and the wrench icon starts flashing before disappearing. But here’s a warning: if you just reset the light without actually doing the maintenance, poor engine lubrication can cause issues, like blackened oil leading to strange noises. I once reset it and drove for several days, only to find the oil had dried up a bit—luckily, I changed it in time to save the engine. Actually, the maintenance manual recommends checking every 5,000 km. Ignoring this could cost you more in repairs later. I think beginners should ask the dealership or refer to YouTube tutorials instead of trying to figure it out themselves.
