OBC issues

Hello,

I've had my X5 for about a month and have been searching the forums for some time now trying to figure out what my problem is.

I can't seem to reset anything in the OBC. I can scroll through everything, with the stalk BC button, and when i want to reset something like MPG, I scroll to it and then hold the button(BC) for a few seconds, but nothing happens.

This isn't the only problem, some buttons on the radio don't seem to work, so I can't set the time or change audio sources.

One note is that the factory cd changer seems to have been taken out, not sure if that is part of the problem in terms of it possibly being on the CAN buss.

Any help would be much appreciative.

Thanks,
Mike

If I understand your question correctly, you'd use the button on the righthand side of the dash cluster to reset that particular field.

If i hit the right button on the instrument cluster it says check control ok.
The left button just resets the odometer, anyone else experience this.

I had to read the owner's manual while sitting in the car to figure it out. It's not intuitive, to me at least.

I am interested in this too. I can't seem to make it reset as well. I need to find the manual as well. Has to be somewhere in the car, I hope.

I still have the CD changer and all that. If I hold the right button by the cluster, I get into test modes. WTF??????????????????????? It does not reset the selected field.
