I have an '85 E28, so, YMMV, but there is a reset button on the computer display panel at the right bottom. press it and the flashing should cease. then enter the time using the 1000, 100, 10, and 1 buttons for the four digits. press the reset button again, and proceed to the date. Or read the manual.(NOT) - --very funny scotty, beam down my clothes. -J.T. Kirk doug dykaar AT&T Bell Laboratories 86 951 85 535i 94 850 turbo wagon groucho the cat
