Resetting the AdBlue Warning Light on Volkswagen Touareg

Model: Volkswagen Touareg MK 1, 7L - Years 2002-2010
Part: AdBlue warning light

Typically, to reset the AdBlue warning light, simply add more additive and reset the computer by turning the key to the 'on' position for 30 seconds (without starting the engine, just turning the key), then turn it off and wait another 30 seconds. If this does not work, use the backup procedure shown in the video: turn off the engine and access the fuse box located under the bonnet, then remove fuse s14, which relates to the AdBlue tank, using appropriate pliers. Nothing could be easier! Put everything back in place and you're done. Check that the warning light has disappeared.
