That's neat that your car has an indicator for when it is about to break. My cars break all the time without warning.

I used the break indicator when I had to decide whether or not to get the extended warranty. The '07 wasn't as sophisticated as the later years, so when I scrolled to the CBI (conditional break indicator), it merely flashed back, "IT WILL"

Tried it... didnt work Do I have to replace my sensor? why it wont reset?

[edirtaynine]

spelling "brake" as "break" once could be a typo. misspelling it 3 times in a row just means you can't spell for shit.

[Raid3n]

LOL.. was using my celly, but same shit! u get the idea hahahaha

[Raid3n]

So.. is there any other way how to reset it? anyone?

[Raid3n]

I dont want to replace my sensor if I dont really have to.. pelase and thank you!

It's a physical [B]BRAKE[/] wear indicator that must be replaced. They cost about $10 for generic, or $20 for expensive ones.

oh so I have to replace the whole wire that connected to my brake pads?

Yes, it's extemely easily to do. If you can change your tire, you can for sure do this.

I bought it for $13.05 shipped: http://www.ebay.com/itm/BMW-Front-Br...#ht_1109wt_838
