This is covered in the repair FAQ, see http://cbsgi1.bu.edu/bmw/repair.html.
Basically, turn the ignition to the on position, but don't start the car.
Depress the gas pedal fully (to the floor), and release it a total of five times
in succession. The light will blink the code. You should read the FAQ for
interpretation of the codes.
