What does a wrench symbol on the dashboard mean?
1 Answers
A wrench symbol on the dashboard indicates that the vehicle requires maintenance. The small wrench indicator light in the instrument cluster is a maintenance reminder light. After the vehicle has been driven for a certain mileage, this light will illuminate to remind the driver to perform maintenance on the vehicle. The maintenance cycle is preset when the vehicle leaves the factory, so the wrench symbol will appear at regular mileage intervals to prompt the driver to perform timely maintenance. Typically, the maintenance cycle is every 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers driven, with the factory-set cycle often exceeding 8,000 kilometers. Vehicle maintenance refers to the process of using specialized care materials and products tailored to the different materials of various vehicle components to provide comprehensive care. This includes maintenance for the engine, transmission, chassis, cooling system, fuel system, and more.
