Check fuse first...
I was trying to reset the Service Indicator Lights on the dash
but had no luck. Now I find that I have no Instrument Lights, Gauges not moving and Fuse 1 keeps blowing. Man am I in trouble please help if you can.

Check fuse first...
Have checked fuse and replaced with others still no helpOriginally Posted by Tiger
How did you try resetting them? Did you purchase a reset tool? or did you make a reset tool? Also...What year and 5er do you have?
Racing King (Mississauga, CA) has a reset tool for $20 CAD:

Works pretty well. Or you can make your own, there's a writeup floating around somewhere ,i'll try to fish it up....
sounds like the general module is toast...

oh yeah, explicit details on your car and the procedure you were performing would be helpful in diagnosis.

Now we have no Instrument Panel Lights, Gauges are not moving, No Brake Lights and the Fuse thay carries the laod for all of these things Fuse No 1 keeps blowing, have tried other fuses and still they blow, have checked for loose wiring could find none.
We took a piece of resistant wire and joined it between Pins 7 & 1 and it did not reset what did happen was what I have described above.
