Reset the oil service light onRenault after 2019

The oil change/service warning light has come on in your Renault. Have you performed the vehicle’s maintenance? If not, you need to change the oil yourself or take it to a mechanic. If you have already carried out the maintenance, you just need to reset your Renault.

To turn off the oil change warning light on your post-2019 Renault, the first thing to know is your car’s year of manufacture. The procedure changes depending on the year. Otherwise, you can always do it electronically with a diagnostics scanner.

What the oil change warning light looks like on post-2019 Renault

The maintenance counter reminds you to service your vehicle, in particular to change the engine oil. Depending on your vehicle’s engine type and chosen oil, the oil change is due every 5 000 / 10 000 / 15 000 / 20 000 km… this interval is set by the manufacturer at the factory.

On Renault Megane 4, Scenic 4, Clio 5, Trafic 3… you can recognize this warning light on your dashboard either as:

• A spanner icon
• The “SERVICE” indicator
