Anyone know how to re-set the service light on an E-Class?

[LHD]

Chaps,

As above really, is there any way to reset the service indicator on my 2005 E200K Elegance?

I've had it serviced by my usual guy but does the indicator have to be reset at M-B?

It's beginning to piss me off as it beeps everytime i start it up.

TIA.

Benzworld forums suggest that the information on how to reset the FSS should be in your owners handbook. On my W202 it is done by a sequence of ignition on/off and trip reset button pushes. Yours may be similar.

I was avoiding reading the book.

Which one of about 7 is it in?

They didn't say.

ETA: A google search for "W211 FSS reset" might help.

Might be right, might not. There appear to be many different answers. Maybe check the book.

I have just discovered the Certificate of Conformity and i'm reading that instead.

It's something to do tomorrow...

Ignition on stage 1.

Push the reset button on the dash 3 times quickly.

Voltage reading should flash up.

Navigate until the service screen pops up.

You'll have options like service data, items, additional work & confirm service.

Scroll down to confirm service & confirm it.

It should be done on STAR to complete the reset properly - but this will reset the light for you.

The Wikipedia Answer is wrong & can only be used on older models like 203 & 220.
