I did a searched and followed the instructions but nothing specifically for X1 so it did not worked. I had a brake fluid service near my house (not BMW service center) so my question, how to reset the brake fluid light.

I have an auto ignition so instructions to insert the key can't be applied. I did see the screen with apostrophe then press up and down to show brake fluids but pressing "BC" doesn't show a reset option.

What am I missing?

1. turn ignition on
2. press mileage button until I see the apostrophe
3. press up and button lever until I see the brake fluid icon
4. press bc button so the reset option will appear but it is not showing

Yes I did, for 5 seconds and it would go back to regular screen. No option to reset or choose anything. I had to start all over to no avail. Do you have the same feature like push button ignition?

If I press this ignition without pressing the brake and follow all the steps again, the "service option" menu will not show up so I had to start the car for it to show up.

Some instructions said insert the key but not to start the car which is different from mine.
