How to Reset BMW Service Light Reminder?
2 Answers
Press and hold the left button on the dashboard while turning on the ignition, and keep holding the button for more than 5 seconds. The display will show "SRV" prompt; release the button, and the display will flash. Then press the left button again to complete the service light reset. Here is some relevant information about BMW: 1. As a world-famous luxury car brand, BMW has multiple series including 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, i, M, X, and Z. Among them, the 1 Series is a compact car, the 2 Series is a compact coupe, the 3 Series is a mid-size car, the 4 Series is a mid-size coupe, the 5 Series is a full-size car, the 6 Series is a full-size coupe, the 7 Series is a luxury D-segment car, the M Series is a high-performance sports car version, the X Series is an SUV, and the Z Series is an entry-level sports car. 2. The BMW logo features a double-circle design with the "BMW" lettering above the double circles. The entire emblem resembles the blue sky, white clouds, and a continuously rotating propeller, symbolizing BMW's long history and its consistent mission and goal: to meet customers' greatest desires with the latest technology and most advanced concepts in the vast expanse of time and space, reflecting the company's dynamic spirit and ever-evolving new outlook.
I used to drive an older BMW for several years, and resetting the maintenance light wasn't difficult. The procedure is similar for most models: First, park the car in a safe place, turn the key to the ACC position without starting the engine, then locate the mileage reset button on the left side of the dashboard, hold it down for about ten seconds until the maintenance light goes off, and you're done. The button position may vary depending on the model—my 3 Series was straightforward, but for a 5 Series or newer models, the steps might be more complex, so it's best to check the manual or online tutorials. Doing it yourself saves time and money, but if the light doesn't go off or flashes incorrectly due to a mistake, it's better not to force it and just head to the dealership for a check-up to avoid damaging the electronic systems. By the way, the maintenance light is actually a reminder to change the oil filter and perform other services, so don't just reset the light and forget the actual maintenance—regular upkeep can extend your car's lifespan and keep it running smoothly.
