(this is to get the needles back into the right position) do the 2.00 KI test, by press and hold the odometer reset button, then plugging in the key, and then press the odometer button til you get to 2.00 KI test. do the test. this will move the needles, after test is done, move the needles into proper position. do ki test again to see if the needles are moving correctly.10. now put the face back on, then put dash back into carCredit: <a href="http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=429398" target="_blank">http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=429398</a></blockquote>
