Video tutorial

In this video, see how to handle the situation if the brake inspection light does not reset on a BMW 3 Series E90. Even when holding down the button/dial (and having performed the service), the light remains on. We need to locate the front brake sensor (which is the likely culprit).

The YouTuber tries to create a jumper from the side coming from the vehicle to rule out that the problem originates from there.

This way, the sensor is bypassed, and we can temporarily reset it, allowing us to take the vehicle to a specialist.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
