Press and hold the reset button "A" while stepping on the brake pedal. Turn the ignition switch to "on" without starting the engine. The characters "INSP" will flash or the display will blink. Continue holding the reset button "A" until "..." appears on the display. Release the reset button "A" and the brake pedal. Turn the ignition switch back to "Off" position to complete the reset.
As a seasoned driver, the little wrench light on the 2011 Tengyi C30 is a maintenance reminder indicator. It often lights up when the vehicle reaches the preset mileage, signaling that maintenance is due. The method to reset it is actually simple: first, turn off the ignition switch to ensure the car is completely shut down, then press and hold the trip reset button on the dashboard without releasing it. Next, turn the key to the ON position but do not start the engine, hold for a few seconds, and wait until the little wrench icon goes out before releasing the button. If the light remains on after this operation, it may indicate a system issue or sensor malfunction, and it is recommended to visit a professional repair shop for inspection to avoid delaying maintenance. Resetting this light promptly not only restores the dashboard to its normal state but also prevents increased engine wear that could lead to costly repairs. Having driven this model for many years, I know that maintenance is the core of extending a car's lifespan, with regular oil and filter changes being key preventive measures.
I've been into cars for over a decade. The wrench light on my 2011 Great Wall C30 often comes on, and manually resetting it is super easy! Here's how: Park and turn off the engine, locate and hold that small button on the dashboard, turn the key to ACC position (don't start the engine), wait patiently for about 10 seconds until the wrench light disappears. If it keeps coming back, it might be due to incorrect maintenance interval settings or a faulty sensor that needs adjustment. Never ignore this - driving with the light on increases fuel consumption, slows acceleration, and may even compromise safety. After servicing, remember to reset it once to ensure system updates. A pro tip: Regularly monitor your mileage and schedule maintenance in advance to reduce how often the light appears.
