No one is interested? I can't figure you guys out. People keep asking to borrow the tool, but no one wants to put some money ahead of their mouth.  Quote: Originally Posted by L84THSKY  | __________________

agreed, i might as well just buy, incase the need for it ever comes up..havn't had the need yet.. | | | | | 08-27-2006, 05:51 PM | #4 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2005 Location: Florida Posts: 2,525 |
I can sell you a paperclip that will do the same thing for .50$. If you don't want to use a paperclip you could go to homedepot and make a reset tool using two pieces of wire and a two pole switch.
If you are going to buy a peake tool I'd buy the one that can also read the OBD codes. | | | | | 08-27-2006, 05:57 PM | #5 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2006 Location: Boston, MA Posts: 1,152 |
Probably waiting for near the end of the auction. It's true what mohaughn said about the other tool that can read codes. More useful than just resetting. | | | | | 08-27-2006, 07:00 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: Greenville, SC Posts: 9,356 |

My bad, I didn't realize this is the model that only does that. Quote: Originally Posted by 1996 328ti Yes. Just to have a tool to reset oil and inspection is a waste of money. Obviously people buy them otherwise Peake wouldn't see it. | __________________

edit....brain fart meant to make a new thread...

I tried the paper clip method yesterday and it worked. I got all my green bars again. When you connect pin 19 and 7 for 5 sec, you should be able to hear a low pitch sound disconnect the paper clip and then check your bars. Follow the simple instruction from the link of the previous post and you'll do fine. | | | | | 10-29-2006, 07:34 PM | #14 | | Member Join Date: Feb 2006 Location: Mullica Hill NJ Posts: 32 |
