In this video we see how to reset the brake wear indicator light of a BMW X3 Series F25 version: we start by pressing the start button on the dashboard, we turn on the computer display, which immediately alerts us to a problem with the braking system.

The youtuber has already changed the brake pads, so he proceeds to reset.

We will press the button/wheel located on the left of the instrument panel several times, until we reach the menu that shows us the image of the vehicle and indicates the status of the front brake first and then the rear brake. It will propose "possible reset" we confirm by holding down the button: we will see the progress of the reset on the display; we do the same with the rear brakes, and that's it.
