We’re located inside the BMW X4 right now, and the vehicle key is located inside the interior as well, and the hood has to be closed. So let’s start the reset procedure.

  1. Turn on the ignition without starting the engine

    The first thing you’re going to do is push the START button two times and the dash will completely illuminate and then all the warning lights will go out

  2. Hold down the RESET button

    The process has started somewhere at this point there’s a RESET button on the left-hand side of the instrument cluster and I’m going to push and hold it then the service menu will come up

    When you’re inside the service menu you’ll let go of the button and you can hit it and cycle through all the vehicle services items. So you’re going to highlight the service that you want to reset

  • First you hit the START button three times in succession to get into the Diagnostic Mode
  • There’s going to be a 0.0 button on the dash and if you can see in the left corner you just hold that down for a few seconds to bring you to service menu

  • At this point you can go through the different options hitting that button but we want to reset the ENGINE OIL at this time
  • If that light was ready to be reset you’d hold the same button
  • When it asks you to reset, you just press and hold it again till it notice the bars go across and you’re done

So that’s how you do it. I have seen sometimes it’ll say unsuccessful, and you may have just to repeat the process, but that is how you reset the service light. So thanks for stopping by, and I hope this content helps you out.
