Resetting the Mini's Service light

Model: Mini Mini R52, R50, R53 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Service warning light

After changing the engine oil of the Mini, we need to reset the control system that alerts us of the need for the operation. We sit in the driver's seat, press and hold the button on the right inside the tachometer, turn the ignition key to position one and release the button. Press it again for five seconds until the "reset" message starts flashing on the display, release it and press again until the updated maintenance interval appears. Turn off the instrument panel and upon the next restart, we will verify the reset.
