What does it mean when a wrench light comes on in the car?

A wrench light appearing on the car dashboard is a maintenance reminder indicator. This small wrench warning light is set by the car manufacturer to alert the owner that the vehicle requires scheduled maintenance based on mileage. After completing the maintenance, the reminder light needs to be reset following a specific procedure to turn it off. The steps to reset the wrench maintenance light are: 1. With the engine off, press the trip meter reset button located below the tachometer; 2. Turn the ignition to the ON position while holding the trip meter reset button until "SERVICE" appears on the display; 3. Pull out the minute button on the clock and turn it clockwise to show the mileage on the display; 4. Turn off the engine and switch the ignition back to the ON position to complete the reset.
