The key fobs are wearing out and need to be replaced. Sometimes taking them apart and cleaning the switch contacts and battery contacts will extend their lives but they are not built to last.
I believe your vehicles ECU sends the mileage data to the instrument panel cluster...in which the LCD odometer display has failed.
Sorry but unless you have very good working knowledge of small intergrated circuits then you will not fix it....There are comon issues with them. You can remove it and have a dealer send it out for you for repair but you cant drive the vehicle. If you do the milage will change in the pcm but will not match the odometer so the pcm will lock the vehicle when you put it back in. Your best bet is to have the dealer send it out or buy a new one with the milage programed into it.
1)check the ignition switch is not loose.those things normally come on before starting.unless2) you have a main ground broken somewhere.rodents eat the wiring harness to build a nest and cause mayhem...i have seen that a few times .check the fusebox under the hood on the drivers side
Assuming this is a service level indicator and not Check Engine Light, instructions by bwwatson above are incorrect.
Please note, I don't recommend resetting this unless you perform BMW's service recommendations first.
After Mid-2000: You should not have the 20-pin DLC connector. You only need to hold the left odometer reset button in while turning the key to position 1 (Accessory). Keep holding the button for 5 or so seconds until any of the following shows in the display: OIL SERVICE or INSPECTION with RESET or RE. Release the button and press it again for another 5 or so seconds until RESET or RE flash. While the display flashes, press the button one more time briefly. If done correctly, END SIA should show up for a few seconds. All done.
