    Kriss was referring to the grounding trick. Simply get a wire, strip the ends, and ground Pin #7 (don't quote me) to the nuts on the shock tower for x amount of seconds and it'll reset the service lights.

    Default Draper Reset Tool

    Thanks, but I know what Kriss was referring to. We've done it on the BMW before. It's just that I just bought a Draper Reset Tool that will do either the oil change reset or the inspection reset and we used that instead. They can be bought on eBay for around $20.00.
