Video tutorial

In this tutorial, you can see how to reset the service light on a Ford Focus 2020 by following a few simple steps that will guide you in managing your vehicle correctly. If this light has come on, you likely need to change the engine oil, so take it to an authorised garage for a service.

If you want to do this yourself and reset the engine oil change signal, simply press the accelerator pedal and the brake pedal down fully (this procedure works for both automatic and manual gearboxes), then while holding both pedals, turn the key to switch on the ignition and it will go to 'RESET'. The reset will be completed shortly.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
