This guide shows how to reset the scheduled maintenance light on a Nissan Primastar. If a spanner icon and the number '0' are flashing on the instrument cluster, it means you have reached the scheduled limit for vehicle maintenance.

To reset the light, follow this procedure. With the engine off, press the accelerator pedal and turn on the ignition; quickly press the brake pedal three times, then turn off the ignition.

At this point, you can release the accelerator pedal and turn on the ignition to check if the operation was successful. If not, you can repeat the process until the message is reset.
