Using the indicator stalk, navigate to the tyre pressure reset option, press the reset button twice in short succession but hold it in the second time until a tick appears on the display

Firstly make sure you have the correct tyre pressure in each tyre.
Using the iDrive Press the menu button, the start menu is called up.
Press the controller to call up the "I" menu
select vehicle setting and press the controller
select "RPA" and press the controller
Start the engine but do not drive off yet
Select "tyre pressure" and press the controller
Select yes and press the controller
Drive off the message "Initialising" is displayed
Initialising is completed during the journey. the controll display then shows Status "RPA Active" again.
This should stop your warning light from coming on

In BMWs to reset most items we got 3 ways:
1) holding the trip indicator and turn the key to step 1;
2) using the indicator, simply the little stick behind the steering wheel;
And
3) IDrive.
In 2004 models with IDrive, it is a simple task, go to the menur and explore the options. Reset the tire pressure, check on the oil level, reset your oil change and etc.
In other models, the procedure is a bit different, it is not very graphic.
By using the indicator, the little stick behind the steering wheel! You simply brows over the options by pressing on its button and select the right option when it appears on your little screen by the milage indicator.

Run flat tyre warning light is on i have checked tyre pressure

This will only come on when a tyre has dropped in pressure (not spare). It work on the principle that a tyre with less air has a smaller rolling circumference and therefore a different wheel speed. This is then monitored against other signals from other wheels and determined that a loss in pressure has occured.

If all tyre pressures seem ok, there could be a chance of a small unoticeable leak and would require a bath test. This is when the tyre is dipped in water and bubbles would appear where the puncture is.

Ultimately the system may just need to be reset, or has incorrectly been reset from a tyre change. For this you just press and hold the TPC button (located on the centre console above the gearstick - looks like a flat tyre with an exclamation) turn on the ignition to position 2 and the light will come on re then yellow,go out, come back on yellow. When it comes back on yellow it re-initializing the system. You can let go of the button and after 20 odd seconds the light will go out for the final time, completing the reset.

If the light continues to come on after the reset then you definitely have a puncture somewhere!

Hope this helps!

Hi there, I think you might have a main fuse that is blown or a main relay not working. Check also all earthing points as well as the ecu earthing points could have been damaged or having poor contacts.
Let us know how you get on.Cheers.
