If its an orange circle flashing, push the mileage reset button with the key off, while the button is pressed turn the switch on, you don't have to start the car, and hold the button until it flashes and goes out. After that it should come on for a second when starting but should not flash anymore.

Maintenance required on dash board how can i reset it please help

    • 1

      Sit inside the driver's seat of the Honda Accord and close the driver's side door. Any interior lights on can prevent the maintenance required light from resetting properly on some year models.

    • 2

      Insert the key in the ignition.

    • 3

      Depress the odometer/trip button located beneath the odometer on the instrument panel. Hold the button down.

    • 4

      Turn the ignition key two clicks forward to the accessory power position. This is also known as the key-on/engine-off position.

    • 5

      Continue to hold down the odometer/trip button for up to 15 seconds until the maintenance required light goes out. On some Accord models, the maintenance required light may blink once before going out.

    • 6

      Release the odometer/trip button and then turn the ignition key to the off position.

    • 7

      Start the Honda Accord to ensure the maintenance required light is no longer illuminated on the instrument panel. If it still is, the reset procedure did not take and you'll need to repeat the procedure.

    "Miant reqir" indicator light shows

    It's a maintenance reminding you it's due for a maintenance. Check owners manual vs current mileage to see what's required at this mileage.

    Maintenance required

    maintenance may have been done, but your indicator needs to be reset.
    How this is done, I don't know. But, you might ask the dealership.

    If your brakes need changing will your maintenance required light come on?

    No the maintenance light comes on at a set mileage interval to remind you that your vehicle will be do for oil or some other scheduled maintenance. Low brakes will not trigger the light. If there is a serious problem with the braking system it will trigger the red brake light on the dash.

    Maintenance Required Light

    The instruction is in your owners manual. I also perform my own maintenance. Well, here's the steps if you still haven't done it. Good Luck

    Put the key into the ignition and press the odometer button. While holding down the odometer button, turn the key to the on position. You will see "-----"on the odometer display. It will count down "-----" "----" "---" "- -" "-". Then you will see zeros on the odometer display "000000". You can now release the odometer button. This will reset the maintenance light on your dash.
