Today, reset the BSI (Body Control) with a few simple steps. First, lower the driver's side window and lift the car's bonnet.

Ensuring all doors are properly closed, remove the keys from the ignition by leaning out of the window. Now wait for 3 minutes, then disconnect at least one battery terminal and wait for 15 seconds.

Now reconnect the terminal and wait another 10 seconds without opening any doors. Leaning out of the window again, activate the side lights and then start the car to check the system's functionality.

Press the lock button on the key for 10 seconds and then remove it. Open and close the doors to test the central locking system, and now you can start the car and complete the system check.
