How do you reset the"worn breaks message" on the idrive on a 2004 525i BMW?

I had the breaks replaced by someone other than the dealer and they didn't reset the message that says the breaks are worn. How do you reset that? I can figure out how to get into see the message, but can't reset it. ThanksHow do you reset the"worn breaks message" on the idrive on a 2004 525i BMW?BMW uses a sensor (two actually) on their cars to determine when the pads need changing. This sensor, simply put, is a electrical connection that breaks apart when the pad falls below 3mm. This sensor will need to be replaced. After the sensor is replaced, the error light will go away. There are two sensors. One on the drivers side front brake assembly and one on the passenger side rear brake assembly. Whichever one you just replaced the pads on is the sensor you need to replace. Judging by the age of your car, its probably the front one.



You can get a new sensor at the dealership.How do you reset the"worn breaks message" on the idrive on a 2004 525i BMW?Take it to the dealer and have them do it, you may need a special toolHow do you reset the"worn breaks message" on the idrive on a 2004 525i BMW?read the repair manual or maybe the owners giude
