This is not correct. I have two or three buttons on my steering wheel and they all work up and down and sideways
Hi Geoff,
There are a number of different ways to reset this model based on what options you have. The easiest way might be through the TRIP button. Take a look at the updated photos we’ve added to this posting based on your question.
I have a 2013 and just reset to 100% but not off the steering wheel. I have a EX and it worked only from the dashboard screen but was a piece of cake once you go to Vehicle, then Maintenance.
