How to reset the AdBlue warning light on a Peugeot vehicle

Model: Peugeot 208 UB, UJ, UP, MK 2, UW - Years 2019-2026
Part: AdBlue warning light

In this video, we see how to reset the AdBlue warning light on a Peugeot car: there is a basic method, without tools: we insert the key and turn on the ignition; we press the accelerator all the way down for 10/15 seconds, turn off the ignition, wait a minute, and then restart. If the warning light is still on, we must try the method with an OBD2 tool, which we will connect to the EOBD port, located at the bottom of the dashboard. We turn on the ignition and select: "diagnosis/SCR system/AdBlue/urea counter reset", then follow the instructions and wait for confirmation. If the error persists, we must go to a workshop, because evidently something is wrong: a faulty AdBlue sensor, a clogged AdBlue injector, or the ECU needs to be reprogrammed. In any case, do not ignore the warning light, because after a certain limit, the car will not restart, and be very careful to use only good quality urea.
