Turning Service lights off via jumper wire/diagnostic connector

[Disco Benny]

thanks JasonC, any gouge on this 11-pin connector?

And WOW talk about EASY on the brake lining light...now onto the Service Light and I should alright!

Its the 15-pin...got it. Resetting when I get home

No need to cut wires, just take the cluster out and remove the bulb. The cluster is very easy to take out. Once you figure it out.

hey guys I just bought a 1985 325e and I have a engine connector with a red cap that has 11 usable connector pins/holes...how does this compare?

Also, on my cluster which wire do I cut to make that "Brake lining" light disappear...my brakes are fine and I do not care about ther sensor

If service lights don't reset, then it's time to change the SI board batteries.

Only 2 things I am gonna add: use a 1A fuse, even 5A is too big. Second, use a pushbutton so you can also easily use it to adjust your valves.
