325_driver 422 Report post Posted June 26, 2019 Anyone know how to reset this light? it comes on when i start the car for a second - the car was serviced before i got it, but the guy never got time to take it back to mechanics. Can this light be reset without a tool? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jacko 2156 Report post Posted June 26, 2019 (edited) Jump on the google, there are a few vids of how to do it through the dash. Also scroll through the service menu to ensure its something thats actually been done, its not just oil changes that are tracked.

KwS 2425 Report post Posted June 27, 2019 I don't recall it coming on in my E91. Usually in the section under that light when it comes on, it will say how soon or overdue the service is. In the example photo above, it would've been due 03/2016. Worst case, if you cant reset it in the car, it'll be resettable using an App or INPA. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gaz 1061 Report post Posted June 27, 2019 Scroll through the menu to find out why, could be WOF reminder or stat emissions testing reminder if yours is an import. If it is either of those hold the BC button down and then change it as desired. If it's engine oil, brake fluid or otherwise then via the cluster 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
