E9X Service light reset?

[roofer]

Ok, here's the problem. Resetting the service lights through the cluster is no problem, but you can't reset the brake pad warning lights. You need to enter a mileage value to reset them. Does anyone know how to put this value in? Its probably a combination of things knowing BMW, but i'm damned if i can find it. TIA.

Im guessing you've tried this http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=510...
but it seems like the pads warning ind can be selected.

Yep, use that often. But the pad warning won't reset on it. New sensors fitted as well which is meant to be required even if they're undamaged (which they were) Bloody cars are 2 clever for their own good sometimes...

Think I used this method,

Push start button twice with the foot off the back and clutch....when check control image disappears and all that is left is current time on the LCD panel of the instrument cluster, press and hold the odometer reset button. After a few seconds, a yellow icon will show up showing that you have service indicator light on. Push and hold the "BC" button of the turn signal stalk until it states "Reset?" let go of the button and push the button back in and hold, a little clock will come up, once the clock graphic besides the reset goes away let go. Turn the car off and resart as normal. The brake light service indicator has now been reset.

If it doesn't reset immediately start it up and go for a drive.

Ta, will give it a go.

As an update, turns out supplied sensor was faulty, new sensor and they reset as they should.
