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.
