On the Opel Kadett, the service light reset occurs directly from the instrument cluster, without external tools. With the vehicle stationary, turn the ignition ON and use the command displayed in the images to access the maintenance section.

Hold the button until the warning resets or confirm when the request appears on the display. After finishing, turn off and restart the ignition to verify that the indicator no longer appears and that the counter is reset.

If the procedure is not accepted on the first attempt, repeat the sequence ensuring the engine is off and the doors are closed.
