Today, I will explain how to reset the service light related to the service interval on a Volkswagen Crafter model 1, independently. To reset the service light, we need to turn on the instrument panel and press the "M" button located on the left side of the instrument panel to access the service menu.

Keep the "S" button pressed to start the service light reset and update the mileage for the next service and engine oil change. Once the reset is complete, restart the instrument panel to save the changes.

If the reset fails, visit an authorised workshop for a check on the control unit sensors.
