The method to reset the maintenance light on the 2017 Corolla is: 1. Turn the ignition switch on and then off, then hold down the reset button on the right side of the combination meter; 2. Turn the ignition switch on again, the maintenance light will first illuminate for 3 seconds, then flash for 2 seconds, and stay on for 1 second before turning off; 3. Release the reset button, and the reset is complete. The body structure of the 2017 Corolla is a 4-door, 5-seater sedan, with body dimensions of: length 4630mm, width 1775mm, height 1485mm, a wheelbase of 2700mm, front and rear track of 1535mm, a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters, and a curb weight of 1375kg.
As a long-term owner of a Toyota Corolla, I have performed the maintenance light reset procedure for the 2017 model multiple times. First, you need to turn the ignition key to the OFF position and ensure the engine has completely stopped. Then locate the TRIP reset button on the instrument panel – that small black button is the one. Hold down the button, then slowly turn the key to the ON position (dashboard lights will illuminate but the engine won't start). Wait patiently for about 10 seconds until the maintenance light begins flashing; release the button immediately when it flashes, and the light will turn off. Remember to perform this reset promptly after maintenance to avoid the reminder light staying on, which can be annoying. Additionally, the Corolla's maintenance light is calculated based on mileage – failing to reset it timely may affect the accuracy of the next reminder. I recommend checking the settings monthly. If the light doesn't flash during the procedure, there might be an issue with the vehicle, such as a sensor malfunction or low battery voltage, requiring a visit to the dealership. This method is straightforward, but don't rush – ensure you're operating in a quiet and safe environment.
