Hey guys

I've just bought a merc A160 and it has been serviced just before i bought it but the computer wasn't re-set.

I could go back to the garage but it's 75 miles away. Is there any way i can re-set it myself?

I know on my previous car I just turned on the ignition whilst holding certain buttons and it re-set??

Please help! it keep saying -160 and a spanner signal when i turn it on...

thanks Stoo :?:

Solved the problem, guy at the local garage gave me the re-set instructions, they are as follows if anyone else needs them.

Switch ignition on and press button A twice straight away
Switch engine off
Press and hold button A and switch ignition on
Hold button A for 10 seconds until beep,
new service interval will now appear
release button A and switch ignition off. Job done

Button A is situated on the left of the dash, the higher of the two small button used to alter the clock. It has 000.0 next to it.
:lol:
