1999-2020 Skoda Fabia Oil Service/Inspection Light Reset Guide

Last Updated on February 23, 2022 by Nick

Hey yo, Skoda lover! Today I’m going to show you how to reset the oil service or inspection light on a Skoda Fabia. It’s an older model, and we’ve done an oil change for the car, and I’m going to show you how to service reset this manually.

So you will see a service reminder coming up every time you start the car. If you’ve had your service done and they’ve forgotten to reset it, or you’ve serviced it yourself, this is the procedure.

Here’s How You Reset Oil Service/Inspection Light On Skoda Fabia

It’s worth noting that the method you use will be determined by the year and type of your car (1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 model years).

Fabia MK1 (1999-2005)

• First, with the ignition off press and hold the TRIP knob on the dash and then turn the ignition on

• As soon as it does, you’ll see OIL on the dash, and then if you turn the knob to the right the service OIL lights will go out
• After that, you’ll press the knob again and you’ll see INSP
• To reset this Inspection light you’ll turn the knob clockwise again and you’re done

Fabia MK2 (2006-2009)

• First, press and hold the TRIP knob on the dash when the ignition off

• Then, turn the ignition on and release the button
• When you see a wrench icon on the display, turn the knob clockwise
• Now turn the ignition off and check if the service reminder is gone

Fabia MK2 (2010-2014)

With Cluster Button

• With the key in the off position, you’ll hold down the 0.0 button 

• After that, turn the key on while you’re still holding it down 
• Then when all the lights come on you’ll let go of that one and then press the ❏ button on the left one so then your light will reset 
• Now if we start the car as you can see we no longer have a service light

With Lever Button

Fabia MK3 (2015-2020)

• Start with turning the ignition off 
• Then press and hold this 0.0/SET button while turning the ignition on

• If you just wait you’ll get a RESET OIL SERVICE message come up but if you wait longer the message will change to RESET SERVICE INSPECTION and you’ll release the button
• As soon as it does, you’ll press the button again and it’ll say service interval reset

So that pretty much wraps it up. I hope it was informative for you. If you have any questions, let me know, and I’ll get back to you as quickly as possible. Thank you so much for coming along on my site, and have a great day.
