Reset dashboard warning for parking lights
I replaced the parking lights. Even though the lights work the warning on the dashboard does not go away. I already drove for a few miles.
Is there some way to reset it?

Sometimes w204 can have 2 bulbs for parking lights at each headlight and also the bulb support could be melted.

No need to drive, it's enough to take out the key for resetting.

It is not the eyelid lights above the headlight. I am referring to the amber colored side marker lights near the wheels.

Side Marker should have a different Fault in the Cluster... I think

What bulb did you put into the side markers? If its LED it has to be compatible with the can bus or it will error even if it works.

The problem is indeed in the eyelid lights ! When I replaced the colored side marker lights, apparently at EXACTLY the same time, one eyelid light on each side went out !!

I had two eyebrow bulbs go out at the same time. I replaced them all with regular clear long life halogen bulbs.
