What is the method to reset the maintenance light on the Changan CS15?
2 Answers
Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. When manually resetting the maintenance light, pay attention to the use of different switches and the duration of button presses. In addition to manually resetting the maintenance light, you can also use a computer to reset it. First, you need to access the car's computer system. Locate the maintenance light reset interface or button, and during the operation, ensure the correct use of different buttons.
Last time I encountered this issue while driving my Changan CS15, I researched several solutions. First, turn off the engine and cut all power, then sit in the driver's seat. Press and hold the TRIP button on the dashboard without releasing it, while simultaneously turning the key to the ACC position (the state where only the electrical system is powered on without starting the engine). Keep holding the button for about 10 seconds, and you'll see the maintenance light on the dashboard start blinking or turn off. At this point, release the button, and you're done. After completing these steps, restart the car to check if the light has properly turned off, ensuring the next maintenance reminder is accurately reset. If it fails, it might be because the button wasn't pressed firmly enough or the key position was incorrect—just try a few more times to get the hang of it. This method works for many Changan models, and I often do it myself to save time waiting at the service center, plus it helps avoid confusion in maintenance schedules that could affect the car's condition. I recommend regularly resetting the maintenance light along with daily checks to prolong the vehicle's lifespan.
