Hi Dudes

Hi to all, my name is Andy Im from England. After years of wanting an E36 M3 Evo cabriolet I have finaly got one, and yes it is a fantastic car. I have encounterd a small problem (I hope) and wondered if anyone can help. The problem is that I changed my rear lights for a smoked set (they look much better I think), I didnt put one of the bulbs back in correctly and "tail light failer" came up on the OBC (18 button). I have reseated the bulb and it works fine, however the OBC is still showing the fault. I have tryed disconecting the battery for a few hours but the fault is still showing (all the lights are working). Is there a way to reset the OBC? Or is it something else?

Any help will be much apreciated,

Andy

Welcome. I'm sure your OBC will be solved - have you tried turning the ignition key off and on with the brake lights on?

Yeah, but no joy. I even put the old light cluster back on but it still shows the fault. Ill get some new bulbs, maybe the current is too low or something?
