How to Reset the Wrench Icon on the 10th Generation Accord Elite Edition?
2 Answers
10th Generation Accord wrench icon is a maintenance reminder light, indicating that your vehicle needs maintenance. The method to clear the wrench icon is as follows: 1. First, turn off the ignition switch, then press and hold the "TRIP" button without releasing it. 2. Next, turn on the ignition switch and release the "TRIP" button. 3. When the dashboard prompts "Maintenance Reset," press and hold the "ENTER" switch for 3 to 5 seconds. After hearing a sound, confirm the completion, and the 10th Generation Accord wrench icon will be cleared. The following situations will trigger the 10th Generation Accord wrench icon: When the remaining distance to the next maintenance is less than 1500 kilometers, the oil inspection indicator light will appear, along with other upcoming maintenance service items, which means the wrench icon will appear.
I just helped a friend with this - the wrench light on the 10th-gen Accord is actually a maintenance reminder. First, turn the key to the ON position (press the start button twice without braking), at which point all dashboard lights will illuminate. Then press and hold the TRIP button on the left side of the steering wheel (the small stalk used to toggle the odometer), keeping it pressed without releasing. After about ten seconds, the wrench light will start flashing - release the button and press it once more. When I tried it, I found you need to wait for the confirmation beep to know it's successful, so don't rush the process. As a side note, if the light wasn't reset after maintenance, remember to mention it to the repair shop next time. Personally, I always stick a note on the dashboard to record maintenance dates - it's more reliable than the car's reminder system.
