If the oil light with a spanner has illuminated on the instrument cluster of your Chevrolet Captiva, it means it's time to have a service at your trusted garage. Once this is done, you can manually remove the light by following the simple procedure shown in this video.

First, go inside the cabin, then turn on the instrument cluster, not the engine, and press the accelerator pedal fully three times in quick succession. Then restart the vehicle and check that the reset has been successful.
