M-B 2003 CLK 500
CLK SRS Light on after seatbelt repair

I have a 2003 CLK 500. The driver's seat belt retractor broke. I replaced it with the exact part number but continue to get the SRS light and a message that restraint systems needs servicing (the same message I got initially when the retractor spring broke).
I was told that if you replace the seat belt unit the same part the SRS fault should clear itself. It has not.
I tried to clear the fault with a Snap-On diagnostic system but keep getting faults, SRS light, message.
My question is: Do I need to use the M-B Star system to clear the fault codes, because the Snap-On system can't, or is there an issue with the part I replaced, the wiring or the restraint system control unit?

Thank you in advance.

SRS errors usually have to be cleared by STAR in order to go away. You'll end up paying about $100 to have the dealer clear it but it will get rid of the annoying errors.

Thank you. I will have the shop use the Star Diag system to reset the SRS while they are repairing the A/C flapper door control arm that recently broke.
