This video explains how easy it is to make a major mistake that prevents the reset of the Vauxhall/Opel Vivaro. The YouTuber suggests this reset method: turn on the ignition, press the accelerator pedal fully three times.

On the third press, the light goes off, but it only takes a trip around the block for it to come back on. After a headache, he discovered that the reason was because he had left the door of his vehicle open. However, we can suggest another method: at the end of the indicator stalk, there is a button that you should hold down.

The display on the odometer will show "0". Release the button, and the reset is complete (but the door must always remain closed!).
