does anybody know how to reset the service indicator on the dashboard on my citroen xsara piccaso?

Question

ive serviced it myself,but does it need to be sent to a garage to reset the counter?thank you

Answer 1

If the service light remains on, there may be something odd at work. I would probably wind up sending it to garage to make sure.
The last thing anyone needs is an expensive repair if some little dodgy thing leads to a big failure.
Once my brother changed an air filter on my mum's car. Service light came on, stayed on. He is a mechanice and knew he had blown a fuse. No big deal, but something else could be in your case. I say this because I know not your level of skill in doing these service things.

Answer 2

Some cars have a button on the back of the speedometer. Just press it and it should reset. It may be on some sort of circuit board but should still be protruding enough for you to feel it.

Answer 3

not sure about your particular car, but some cars have a reset button located in the fuse panel. your cars service manual should tell you if there is one and how to reset it. if it is the "service engine soon" light, just take off one of the battery cables for a couple minutes and the computer will reset itself.
