'88 E28 535i service light reset tip?

Just had the 235,000 mile service at the local Jiffy Lube. Problem is they
don't have the proper resetting tool for the service light on the dash.
Anyone outline the procedure for jumping the connector and making everything
right in the world again?
TIA, Health & Peace,
Lance

You can even do it with a bent paper clip :-)

I think there's a diagram on www.bmwe30.net

C'mon, Burns! We're talking *Jiffy Lube* here, not NASA ... ;^)

Hey boys, I'm accessing this newsgroup through AOL and missed all messages
regarding this problem except the above response.
I'm sure a paperclip would work but need to know which pins to jump or further
extrapolation. Please check my e-mail addy and help me out here.
Thanks again,
Lance
