How to Reset the Maintenance Wrench Light on Honda Envix?
3 Answers
To reset the maintenance wrench light, follow these steps: 1. Turn the vehicle's ignition switch to the ON position. 2. Repeatedly press the SEL/RESET button until "Maintenance" appears on the display. 3. Press the Enter button, and the engine oil monitor information will appear on the screen. 4. Hold the Enter button for about 10 seconds, and the maintenance light will reset. The wrench symbol on the car's dashboard is set by the manufacturer to remind the owner to perform maintenance at the specified mileage. When this light stays on for a long time, the vehicle should be taken to a 4S shop for maintenance.
I've done similar maintenance on a Honda before, and clearing that wrench light is pretty straightforward. First, insert the key and turn it to the ON position—don't start the engine, just get the dashboard powered up. Then locate the small button on the instrument panel, usually the TRIP or INFO button, press and hold it firmly for about 10 to 15 seconds until you hear a beep or the light turns off by itself. If that doesn’t work, you might need to try a different button sequence, like pressing twice and then holding, but it’s best to check the manual to avoid mistakes. Once the light is off, remember to change the oil and filter on time—this car will last longer with proper maintenance. Don’t worry, it’s a one-minute DIY job, much easier than running to the repair shop.
Last time when the wrench light on my Envix came on, it scared me into checking immediately, but the actual operation wasn't difficult. You sit in the driver's seat, turn the key to ACC or ON without starting the engine; once the dashboard lights up, look for a button usually with an arrow, hold it down for a count of ten, and the light will disappear. This method works for most Honda models, including the Envix. However, after resetting the light, you should still perform an actual check on the car's condition, such as oil level and tire pressure, to avoid unnecessary trouble next time the light comes on. I've been doing this myself since the car was new, saving both worry and money, and most importantly, developing good habits.
