What does the small wrench on the dashboard mean?

The small wrench is a maintenance indicator light, which serves as a maintenance reminder. It typically appears during the self-check when you turn the key. Here are the relevant details: 1. The purpose of the maintenance indicator light is to remind the driver to service the vehicle after it has been driven a certain distance. In other words, when the small wrench lights up, you should take your car to a 4S shop for maintenance. Note that different manufacturers set different maintenance intervals for their models, so when the small wrench lights up should be based on the vehicle's user manual. After maintenance is completed, the technician will reset the maintenance light to zero (i.e., turn it off) through a setting procedure. 2. If the vehicle is being serviced normally, you can manually eliminate the "small wrench" indicator by following these steps: (1) Insert the key, but do not turn it; (2) Hold down the operation lever next to the odometer for 5-10 seconds, then turn the key to power on; (3) After another 5-10 seconds, start the engine. Keep holding the operation lever throughout this process without releasing it. (4) Generally, following these steps will clear the small wrench indicator. If it doesn't clear, repeat the same process a few more times.
