BMW question - NTIman - 08-01-2007

2002 BMW 325xi


Does anyone know how to reset the inspection light/message (or whatever)?

(not the oil change reminder)


- PDenbigh - 08-01-2007

Have you tried google?

I ask because I know how to do it on a 1992 OBD1 and it's a serioes of touching pins together on the diag port for x seconds... and I found that on either google or bimmerforums. I imagine it's same but different for your application, just unsure of the specs.


- NTIman - 08-01-2007

I have googled it yet, its a coworkers car, so to be honest with you, i'm not putting much effort into it yet.

Same on ODBII... That help?


- NTIman - 08-02-2007

I'll give him that link and see what happens, either way, thanks for the help.

usually people just buy the cheap scan tool off ebay


- NTIman - 08-02-2007

Yeah, that'd be the easiest way, but we're too cheap.

All I know is that my car doesn't have any service reminder lights, and I thank god for that. Maybe that says something about the fine quality of my ford product.

Fords are easy to reset, just unhook the battery :lol:
