how do you reset the dial on a Mercedes Benz ml500 when the wrench shows up?

I’ve had the check up for the car, but I didn’t take it to a MB dealer and the garage I had it at couldn’t reset it.

    There are different steps that are determined by your year model. If you have the instructions, the one instruction they leave out is to follow the steps with the driver’s door closed.

    Good luck!

    Mercedes is the only one to reset it- After each check up they keep computerized records so that any Mercedes dealers in any country can see what was last repaired, what parts need -mileage recorded and more important the resetting tells them approximately when parts are need to be checked & when you should return. Mercedes also sends your post card reminders with heavy discounts attached-( you won’t get this from the gas station repair Guy). It is a piece of mind- I just don’t keep up with matinence- changing fluids & wiper changes -they do– I have other things in life that I keep up with. I only use Mercedes Dealer -you can void your warranty if you don’t & you know your parts are authentic. Remember cars don’t break down on sunny weekends during the day–but Dark Raining -no one out nights on side streets-highways and only when you are alone! This is why I switched from Jaguar….As as a owner- sometimes its not about the money -but about the service—- They may do you a courtesy & reset it …but they may also say warranty voided–call on the phone first-good luck

    Instructions up to 2006 ML’s :
    Get in car, close door. Turn key two clicks to position 2. Push odometer reset button twice quickly to display service interval reminder. Push in a third time and hold down, turn key off and then back to position two while still holding in odo reset button. It will reset that way.
