After a service on a Renault Captur, the service interval warning and oil change light need to be manually reset using the buttons on the end of the steering column stalk. No diagnostic tool is needed — it takes less than two minutes and works across a wide range of Renault models.
This guide covers the reset procedure for the 2015 Renault Captur, but the same method applies to many other Renaults that have the up and down arrow buttons on the end of the indicator stalk.

Turn the Ignition On
Insert the key card into the slot (or use the key on older models) and turn the ignition on without starting the engine. You should see the dashboard illuminate and the service required message displayed on the instrument cluster.
Navigate to Service Intervals
Using the up arrow button on the end of the indicator stalk (on the right hand side of the steering column), cycle through the dashboard display options. Keep pressing the up arrow until you reach the Service Intervals menu. You will see it showing the current service interval information — at this point it will likely show zero miles or zero months as the service is due.
Reset the Service Interval
With the Service Intervals screen showing, press and hold the up arrow button. The display will start to flash — keep holding the button until it stops flashing. When it settles, it will now show the new service interval — typically 18,700 miles or 12 months on the Captur. The service interval has been successfully reset.
Reset the Oil Change Interval
Press the up arrow one more time to move to the next screen — this will show the Oil Change interval, which will also be showing zero as it's due. Press and hold the up arrow again and wait for the display to flash and then settle. It will now show the new oil change interval — typically 18,700 miles or 24 months. The oil change reminder is now reset.
Turn Off Ignition & Confirm Reset
Turn the ignition off and remove the key card. Wait a few seconds then start the engine normally. The service required warning should no longer appear on the dashboard. If it does reappear, repeat the procedure making sure you hold the button long enough for the display to fully stop flashing before releasing.
