How to Reset the Peugeot 308 Maintenance Wrench Light?
2 Answers
Method to reset the Peugeot 308 maintenance wrench light: First, turn off the ignition switch, then press and hold the trip meter reset button on the instrument cluster. While holding the button, turn on the ignition switch. The odometer will display a countdown, and when it shows 0000.0, release the button. The indicator light will then turn off. The Peugeot 308 is a compact family car with dimensions of 4590mm in length, 1820mm in width, and 1488mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2675mm. It is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission and has a top speed of 195 km/h.
Removing the maintenance wrench symbol on a Peugeot 308 is actually not difficult. I've been driving for over a decade and helped friends with this several times. First, park the car securely and turn the ignition switch to OFF position. Press and hold the reset button on the dashboard (usually a small dot near the tachometer) without releasing. Then turn the ignition to ON position (dashboard lights on but don't start the engine). Count about 15 seconds until you see the wrench symbol flashing or disappearing, then immediately release the button. Finally, turn off the ignition and restart to confirm the light is gone. However, I must remind you - when this light comes on, it means your car is saying "time for maintenance". Even after resetting, get your oil and filters checked promptly. Ignoring it could cause serious engine wear and costlier repairs. Last time I delayed for two weeks and ended up paying nearly 2,000 yuan for parts replacement - definitely not worth it.
