Resetting the service light on a Volvo V40 T4 can be done with the following steps:
-
Turn the ignition to position I (key in, but engine off):
Insert the key into the ignition, and turn it to the first position (I), where the dashboard lights up, but the engine is not running. -
Press and hold the trip reset button:
While the ignition is still in position I, press and hold the trip odometer reset button on the instrument cluster. -
Turn the ignition to position II (ignition on, but engine off):
While holding the trip reset button, turn the key to the second position (II). The dashboard will light up, but do not start the engine. -
Wait for the service light to flash:
Keep holding the trip reset button. After a few seconds, the service light will begin to flash. Once it starts flashing, release the trip reset button. -
Turn the ignition off:
Turn the key to the "off" position and remove it from the ignition. -
Verify the reset:
Start the car and check that the service light is no longer illuminated.
If the service light doesn’t reset on the first try, repeat the steps carefully. This reset process may vary slightly depending on the exact model year of your Volvo V40 T4, so it's a good idea to consult a Volvo V40 Service & Repair Manual if needed for more detailed instructions. This manual will provide specific guidance for your model and ensure you’re performing the reset correctly.
