Default belt light reset

Does anyone know how to reset the belt light for the 1st belt check. I have a 2006 bf 650i. Thanks in advance for your help.

Here you go. This will shut the light off on your brute. I see this is your first post so welcome to the forums!!

1) remove seat, unplug black and grey 4-pin connectors
2) swap plugs, grey to black and black to grey
3) turn on ignition switch, belt light should be flashing quickly
4) disconnect 2-pin belt switch above torque converter cover, belt light should be flashing slowly
5) let flash for at least 5 seconds
6) turn off ignition switch
7) reconnect 4-pin connectors black to black and grey to grey, reconnect 2-pin belt switch
8) turn on ignition switch to confirm belt light is out

Turning off the belt light is one thing but, more importanly, you need to find out why the belt light came on in the first place. Open up the CVT cover and make sure belt and sheaves are in a good shape... The belt light either comes either steady on or flashing - either way, you are supposed to check/adjust/replace whatever necessary on the CVT first THEN turn off the light. Hope everyone is doing this way. No need to take to a dealer if you are somewhat handy. And a lot of times, you have to pay for it because it is either a maintenance item or dealer would say you caused the problem.

They come on every 100 hours, on the v force there is no sencer but it's just a reminder basically, the bf and praries also have sencers along with the 100hour timer, so just remove the cover knock on it to get any metal shaveings out of the cvt make sure evrythings in working order check if your belt is getting worn then reset the light put the cover on and you're good to go.

On BFs and Ps, it's not a sensor but a slightly modified toggle switch that gets physically hit by either worn out or broken belt. If it gets hit hard enough by the belt, the switch gets damaged and you just can't buy the switch alone from dealer. You need to buy a complete CVT cover (what a crappy deal!) instead of just the $5 toggle switch. If you are creative, you can fix/replace the switch alone.
Also, when checking the belt, measuring the belt deflection (BD) would be the most important step. The BD should be in the range of 22-27 mm on most late Kawi CVT models with 13 lbs of force applied in the middle of the belt from the top. Too tight would cause the quad to creep when idling and too loose would cause belt slipping.
