To reset the engine warning light on a VW Golf GTI, first, ensure that the underlying issue causing the warning light is addressed. You can then use an OBD-II scanner to clear the fault codes, which typically turns off the light. Alternatively, disconnecting the car battery for about 15 minutes may also reset the warning light, but this could also reset other settings. Always consult your vehicle's manual for specific instructions related to your model year.
