This video shows how to reset the service light on an Opel/Vauxhall Vivaro. The same procedure applies to a Renault Trafic.

Insert the ignition (but do not start the engine); press and hold the accelerator pedal; meanwhile, press the brake pedal fully three times. Once you have done this, release both pedals simultaneously and wait for ten seconds, then turn off the ignition.

At this point, turn it back on to check the outcome of the operation, which should be successful: the maintenance light is off. You can now start your journey.
