I’ve got a BMW 3 Series, I wanna use Autel Maxisys MS908S PRO to reset ELV for this 2007 BMW E90 320d diesel. Luckily the car started for the customer, it is running which is a good news. There are several warning lights on the dashboard now.

Connect Autel MS908S Pro with BMW OBD2 port:

Go to “Service” after auto detect vehicle VIN >> Power train >> CAS

There are 3 reset functions: reset starter lock, car access system reset, reset internal electric steering lock frequency counter.

I will do them all in turn.
