Today i`ve bought a new set of front brake pads and installed. After that i started to reset the km remainig of front brake pads on bord. like this:

Code:
1. Switch the ignition on (so that the battery, Oil and Parking brake lights are displayed) and the key is ready to start the engine - but don't actually start the car.

2. Press the odometer reset button for between 5 and 10 seconds until a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in the centre appears in the top window between the clocks (where the outside temperature / time or date normally appears) - this is the "Service" icon.

3. Release the odometer button briefly and press again straight away which brings up a picture of the Brake Fluid symbol (same as the one that the i-drive shows when you look at the Service menu).

4. If you want to reset the Brake Fluid interval for another 2 years then keep holding the odometer button until the word "RESET?" appears at the bottom of the lower window.

5. Release the button briefly and push it in again and hold for about 5 - 10 seconds until the new date appears in the bottom window. You can then switch the ignition off and the new Brake Fluid date will appear in the service menu on the i-drive screen next time you switch on.

6. If you want to reset the Oil, Microfilter or Brake Pad indicators then you will need to follow the same sequence as steps 1 and 2 above, but when you get to step 3 and the brake Fluid icon appears, just release the button and press again and the next service item will appear.

7. You can continue releasing and pressing the button until the required service item icon appears for the one you want to reset. As soon as it does then hold in the button in until the word "RESET?" appears again as in step 4 above. Once the word "RESET?" has appeared, you need to release the button briefly and hold it in again for about 5 - 10 seconds until it is replaced by the new service interval figure (as per step 5 above).
I didn-t read well the indication and until i managed to reset the Brake Pad indicators my car`s display went off. I cannot acces navigation, entertainment, climate.. It does not work at all. The display is black and looks like the all system is off. I can ignite my car and i do not have any error indicator on board.
What did i do wrong ? I-ve shuted down the car`s computer ? What can i do now to fix it ?

Please help!
PS. Sorry for my bad english.

I had something similar happen. The iDrive knob would not turn and I couldn't access any of the iDrive features....couldn't turn on radio etc....then the iDrive knob went completely loose and I could just spin it around and around. I found on the net a trick for this and involves pushing and holding the radio power/volume knob and pushing and holding the CD eject button. Do this together for about 5 to 10 seconds and it may reset the iDrive. I did this and it worked.
