Video tutorial

This video shows the procedure to reset the maintenance light on the Peugeot 208. This procedure is necessary after performing maintenance, as the control unit does not automatically reset the light. To perform the reset, insert the key, start the ignition, then press the button located on the right in the centre of the instrument cluster.

While holding it, turn off and then turn on the ignition again; if done correctly, the reset light will appear; otherwise, keep holding the button and restart the ignition. Once the reset is successful, you can release the button and restart the ignition to ensure the reset has occurred correctly.
