That is how it works on my `94 E34. I use a spspt momentary switch on

some extension wires so I can be sitting in the drivers seat. I press

the switch and hold it about 5-6 seconds and when I release the switch

the led bars clear to all green. If the Inspection light is also on (or

I have just performed an Inspection 1 or 2 I just hold the switch closed

for around 15 seconds and when I release it clears everything.



From descriptions I have heard and read some other ECUs behave

differently and will actually clear while the switch is still closed.
