Service sensor comes on at rare times

Bimmer_BG09 · 02-18-2016, 07:17 PM

At rare times (this has only happened about 3-4 times) my service sensor would come on lit up in yellow when I start my BMW causing my clock to reset and also causing my trip mileage to reset as well. It's happened twice in the same day about 2 months ago and it happened recently again twice in one day. Those are the only two things that I did notice were reset when that sensor came on but I could be wrong. If anyone has any idea why this happens please let me know and thank you.

Clock & odometer reset is often due to a failing battery. If original, its probably due for replacement.
