On another thread he was getting the lights and that noise and that was related directly to the gear being worn.. Fingers crossed its that easy

Transfer Case Actuator potential free fix! - Bimmerfest - BMW Forums
That ticking sound is the sound of a stripped gear in the transfer case actuator motor.

The stripped gear was probably the problem. Once you install a new gear, the trifecta of lights will go off once you start driving the X no need to reset the light. If you didn't reset the lights and they went off by themselves your problem is Fixed.
