How to reset the wrench light on JAC Refine S3?
2 Answers
The "small wrench" appearing on the dashboard is a maintenance indicator, reminding the driver that the vehicle requires timely servicing. If maintenance hasn't been completed, this light will illuminate. Here are the steps to reset the indicator: 1. Turn off the ignition switch; 2. Press and hold the adjustment rod at the lower right of the instrument panel; 3. Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position; 4. After approximately 5 seconds of ignition being on, the maintenance light will turn off, at which point you can release the adjustment rod. After vehicle maintenance, it's crucial to reset the maintenance reminder. Otherwise, you won't be able to accurately track the usage time of new components during the next replacement.
I remember encountering the wrench light issue when I drove the JAC Refine S3 before. That little light comes on to remind you that the car needs maintenance, and ignoring it might affect the engine's lifespan. The reset method is quite simple, but it depends on the model year. Generally, you should first turn off the ignition without starting the engine, then press and hold the reset button or TRIP button on the dashboard, turn the key to the ON position without starting the car, and keep holding for about ten seconds until the light goes off before releasing. However, button locations can vary, so it's best to check the user manual to confirm. If the light remains on after trying, it might be due to incorrect operation or an actual vehicle fault—in that case, it's safer to drive directly to a 4S shop for inspection rather than forcing it. Developing a habit of regular maintenance can prevent this issue and is crucial for driving safety.
