How to Reset the "Service" Light on a BMW X5

Model: BMW X5 E53 - Years 1999-2006
Part: Service warning light

Start by pressing the button near the fuel gauge, while activating the instrument cluster without starting the engine. After a few seconds of holding the button with the cluster on, the lower display will show "Reset SIA: -1312 1". Once this message appears, press the same button again until the word "Reset" starts to flash. At this point, press the button one more time, and instead of "Reset," the word "End" will appear. When this word shows up, you have successfully completed the reset.
