To reset the on-board computer in a BMW 5 Series, you will need to perform a hard reset. This can be done by disconnecting the negative terminal on the battery for about 30 minutes. Make sure to have your radio code handy as it may reset as well.

Another way to reset the on-board computer is by using an OBD-II scanner. This is a more advanced method and may require some technical knowledge. The scanner can read and reset any error codes in the computer.

If you're not comfortable with performing a hard reset or using a scanner, it's best to take your BMW 5 Series to a certified mechanic. They will have the necessary tools and knowledge to reset the on-board computer properly.
