How to Reset the Tyre Pressure Warning Light on the BMW 1 Series

Model: BMW Serie 1 E81, E82, MK 1, E87 - Years 2004-2013
Part: Tire pressure warning light

To reset the tyre pressure warning light on the BMW 1 Series, start by checking the correct pressure of all 4 tyres. Then, turn on the instrument cluster and the car's engine. Press the button at the left end of the stalk that controls the indicators until a symbol of a deflated tyre appears. Keep holding the same button to complete the reset until a square with a tick appears next to the "reset" message, indicating the reset has been successful. Finally, turn off the car's engine, turn the instrument cluster back on, and check if the tyre pressure warning light reappears.
