Tools Required
  • No special tools are required, but you might want:
    • Owner's manual for reference

Repair Instructions

  1. Turn Off the Vehicle: Ensure the car is turned off completely.

  2. Insert the Key: Insert the key into the ignition (if equipped with a key) or ensure the push-button start is ready.

  3. Press the Start Button: Without pressing the brake pedal, press the start button twice to turn on the electrical system without starting the engine. If your model has a traditional key, turn the key to the “On” position without starting the engine.

  4. Access the Odometer/Trip Meter:

    • Use the trip meter button (located on the instrument cluster) to toggle the display to show the odometer reading. Make sure it is not showing the trip distance (TRIP A or TRIP B).

  5. Turn Off the Vehicle Again: Turn the ignition switch back to the “Off” position.

  6. Press and Hold the Trip Meter Reset Button:

    • Press and hold the trip meter reset button (located on the dashboard near the odometer).

  7. Turn On the Ignition Again: While holding the trip meter reset button, turn the ignition switch to the “On” position again (or press the start button twice without pressing the brake pedal).

  8. Watch for the Maintenance Light: Continue holding the trip meter reset button until the maintenance light blinks and then goes off. This usually takes about 10 seconds.

  9. Release the Button: Once the maintenance light goes off, release the trip meter reset button.

  10. Turn Off the Ignition: Turn the ignition back to the “Off” position.

  11. Verify Reset: Start the engine to confirm that the maintenance light is no longer illuminated.
