False Tail Light Indicator warning

I recently purchased a 2010 c300. About a month after purchase the "check rear tail light " warning goes on every time i start the car. I've looked at the rear tail lights and they are all working properly. Is there a way to reset the warning?

Thanks

Your ground wire is probably starting to burn through the harness. Open the little hatch on the right side of your trunk and take a look at the 7 pin connector.

You can also look up my thread about the melted tail light connector.
