Resetting the brake light on BMW 1 Series and 3 Series, whether related to the fluid or brake pads, is extremely simple. Just start the car and press the designated button on the steering wheel, to your left, until the time appears on the small screen.

At this point, press and hold the small button under the speedometer until the reset option appears. Release the button and then press and hold it again until the screen asks "perform reset?" Release and press it one last time, and you're done.
