A Class 55 Model Service Interval Reset ?

[bobnandra]

Just had my 2005 A Class A170 Petrol Serviced by non MB Dealer. The display shows Service D exceeded by 100 days. (The car has only done 8000 Miles from new. This is the second service.) The Garage has the Autodata book and describes how to reset the service interval, but it must be for older models and as described elsewhere in this forum ie.

Reset Assist on A class

"Turn the key to position 2 in the ignition lock and immediately press
button 000.0 twice within the space of one second.
Turn the key to position 0 in the ignition lock.
Press and hold button 000.0 Turn the key to position 2 in the
ignition lock. Keep button 000.0 pressed.
Service message with current remaining distance or remaining time
appears.
After about 10 seconds, an acoustic signal will sound and the service
display with the new starting distance or starting time appears for
about 10 seconds.
Release button 000.0"

This procedure done NOT work.

Does anyone know any new proceudre to reset the Interval Message, which is a spanner on a LCD display?

Thanks

Bob.

PS. Read a post by DAVA who said new models use a different procedure and that DAVA would put this post up. Appreciate it if you would DAVA or anyone else. Thank you.

Solved

Found post by DAVA with the following instructions and have solved problem;

How to reset the Maintenance Service interval:

- Switch ignition on to position one, (first click clockwise);
- "Outside temperature" should be displayed, if not move to it (You have to be in this display to go further);
- Press the trip odometer, "reset", knob three times consecutively ( The Voltage display will appear);
- Press Down Arrow to enter the "Service Menu". "Service Data" submenu below will be highlighted.
- Press right page to enter the Service data submenu. (Left page goes up in menus, -+ selects items displayed)
- Press - three times on right of wheel to highlight "Confirmation".
- Use right page to select to display sub-menu as to what to confirm.
- Select "Full Service" (No need to use -+.) to confirm this choice
- Press right page to confirm. (Delay is about 3 seconds.)
- Press left page twice to exit the menu system, or turn off the ignition switch.
- Turn off ignition. Turn back on. The display should show that it is recalculating the mileage and days. This takes about 60 seconds so be patient.

Many thanks

Bob.
