How to Reset the Oil Maintenance Light on BAIC BJ80C?

[LeBradley]

BAIC BJ80C oil maintenance light can be reset using a fault diagnostic tool. Additional information: 1. Function of the car maintenance light: The original intention of the car maintenance light is to remind the owner to perform maintenance as soon as possible. Therefore, the owner should promptly go to the 4S shop for maintenance. After the maintenance is completed, the 4S shop will use a fault diagnostic tool to reset the maintenance light for the vehicle. 2. Definition of maintenance light reset: Most vehicle models have a maintenance light reminder function on the instrument panel. After driving a certain mileage or period of time, the LCD screen on the instrument panel will display a message prompting immediate maintenance. This means that the mileage or number of days the car has been driven has reached the time for replacing the three filters and oil. After replacing the three filters and oil, it is necessary to reset the system to allow the computer to re-memorize the next maintenance mileage or number of days, commonly known as maintenance light reset.

I've just dealt with a similar issue and would like to share the method for resetting the oil maintenance light on the BAIC BJ80C: First, turn off the vehicle and rotate the key to the ON position without starting the engine. Then, look at the dashboard and usually press a combination of control buttons on the multifunction steering wheel, such as holding down the left and right buttons for a few seconds to enter the menu. Find the maintenance option and select to reset the oil counter. After completion, turn off the key and restart to check if the light should be off. A reminder: the oil light indicates the need for an oil change, so don't forget to perform the next maintenance on time after resetting. Also, check if the oil level is normal; too low may cause engine wear. If the operation fails, it's recommended to consult the owner's manual or visit a specialized repair shop, as operation methods may slightly vary for different model years. For example, older models might require removing the lower dashboard cover for button reset. In summary, timely reset avoids misleading maintenance status.

I've been driving the BJ80C for several years and am quite familiar with the maintenance light reset procedure: Turn the key to the ON position without starting the engine, use the steering wheel left/right buttons to navigate to the settings menu while the dashboard display is on, then select the maintenance item to reset the oil section. If it fails, try performing the operation after starting and then turning off the engine. A simple operation can turn off the reminder light. Remember to check the dipstick oil level after resetting – if it's too low, it may affect engine lifespan. Daily maintenance is crucial, as this light is designed to protect your vehicle. Ensure safety throughout the operation by parking stably and using the key correctly. If in doubt, it's best to consult a 4S shop to avoid damaging the electrical system through improper handling.
