I recently purchased a used BMW 3 Series and noticed that the onboard computer system hasn't been reset in a long time. Can you provide me with step-by-step instructions on how to reset it? I want to make sure all the previous owner's information is completely erased and start fresh.
ReplyHi Michaela, resetting the onboard computer is actually quite simple. Start by turning on the ignition without actually starting the car. Once the instrument cluster lights up, hold down the odometer reset button for about 5-10 seconds. You should see the words 'service' or 'reset' appear on the screen. Release the button and press it again to confirm the reset. This should reset all the settings and previous owner's information. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Hey Michaela, I would definitely recommend resetting the onboard computer to erase any previous information and start fresh. To do this, you will need to turn on the ignition without starting the car. Then, press and hold the odometer reset button until you see 'reset' or 'service' appear on the screen. Release the button and press it again to confirm. Keep in mind that this will also reset any personal settings you may have saved. Let me know if you need any further assistance.
