How to Reset the Service Light on a Cupra Formentor

Model: Cupra Formentor MK 1 - Years 2020-2026
Part: Service warning light

On the Cupra Formentor, after changing the engine oil, it is necessary to manually reset the maintenance warning from the onboard system. If the reset is not performed correctly, the service message will continue to appear on the instrument panel even if the work has already been done. The procedure is carried out with the vehicle stationary and the ignition off. From the driver's seat, operate the controls located near the steering wheel and on the digital instrument panel. Turn on the ignition without starting the engine and hold down the button for managing the service. The system will enter the reset confirmation screen. At this point, it is crucial to follow the sequence requested by the display, confirming the reset of the maintenance reminder. After confirmation, the instrument panel will show that the reset has been completed, and the maintenance interval will return to the standard values for the oil change. Turning the ignition off and back on will ensure the service message is no longer present, indicating that the procedure was successful.
