happens maybe 5/10 times when I initially start my car (89 325I), the check panel light goes off as soon as I hit the brake pedal. I had a 90 325I that did this too, anyone know why its doing this and how to fix it if something's wrong?

The check panel light should come on if you aren't holding the brake pedal when you start the car.The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

You need to hit the brakes in order for it to know that the lights are good.Comment

I'm not sure how it works in the M3. It may need to see both states of brake lights to turn off the warning.The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
