BMW owners and technicians today are facing the
urgent need to read and reset BMW’s unique “factory” engine fault codes and
lights. This requires a NON-OBDII tool, such as the low cost R5/FCX3-16 from Peake
Research, which will read and reset factory “dealer” codes and reset BMW’s
unique dash lights, like the Oil Service - Inspection and engine lights.
Why is "NON-OBDII" so important?
There is a huge difference between OBDII codes and the highly specific “factory”
codes. The R5/FCX3-16 accesses BMW’s vast array of “factory” diagnostic, analysis
and repair codes enjoyed by BMW dealers, where OBDII tools and the misleadingly
named “Manufacturer Specific OBDII” tools simply will not. Keep in mind, BMW did
not go beyond the governments most narrow and basic legal requirement for OBDII
code reading in their cars. Therefore OBDII code readers are of virtually no
value outside the realm of smog testing.
If your aim is to reset BMW’s unique brand of dash lights, repair, pinpoint and
analyze, there is no substitute for “factory” capable tools like the R5/FCX3-16 made by Peake Research Corporation.

Since 1989, Peake Tools have been the industry-standard when it comes to
electronic diagnostics and reset tools for BMWs. Peake Research’s professional

truly fool proof - compares in ease with checking your oil, pumping your own
gas, etc.
