Probably the same as early W211 ~ pre 2003.
Ask the W208 forum.

Have you replaced the tripped pad sensors? The light should go out once that is done.

clk 270 cdi w209
Does anyone know what code reader will talk to a CLK 270 cdi (2002 diesel)?
I have tried a couple - the connectoe is obd 16 pin and seems to be wired for ISO 9141, but despite limp mode, my Sealet reader shows no codes.

2004 CLK 320 Convertible
Can I reset the service indicator before servicing is due? Currently, the display indicated Service B in 1700 miles. However, I have just completed my servicing.
When I followed the steps in the reset service indicator guide, there is no service menu after the voltage indicator is displayed. My ride is a 2004 CLK 320 and it has the same steering wheel and dashboard layout as the picture depicted for CLS. Do I follow the CLS or CLK procedure as the CLK steering wheel and dashbaord is different from what I have now?
Appreciate the Gurus' reply. Thanks in advance.

For my 2005 CLK320 Cabriolet (W209) I used this procedure to reset the service indicator:
Get in car & close doors
turn key to position 2
use steering wheel control to bring up odometer mileage
use the select rocker to then bring up message "service "A or B Due ect.."
press & hold the R button on left side of odometer on dash
message will show
DO YOU WANT TO RESET SERVICE INTERVAL
PRESS "R"
at this point hold in the "R" button for 3 seconds
It then says service A due in 10,000 miles if you reset Service B
ALL DONE!
My reset button does not have an "R" printed on it. Mine is a long stem slim knob sticking out to the left side of the odometer display.

Tried this on my 2005 CLK320 cabriolet to no avail. When I have the service message up and press and hold the reset button nothing happens. Have never seen "DO YOU WANT TO RESET SERVICE INTERVAL..." Any further suggestions?

C300 4MATIC And formerly 73 450SL
Thanks to Timewarp. His solution is the only one that worked on my 2003 SL. The big key is close all doors and turn key to POSITION 2...NOT POSITION 1.

None of the listed methods worked for me, but this did, more or less. The key that worked for my 2005 CLK 500, was the key. The video was a bit hit and miss, but it does work:

Worked a treat, but need to be exactly following the steps
Thank you all for this information. very useful. Finally found a way to get it to work with my W209 2004 CLK 200compressor
Largely followed the instructions posted by Glyn M Ruck. Thank you.
Here they are again with my comments
Get in car & close doors - must close doors
turn key to position 2 - must be position 2 and not position 1.
use steering wheel control to bring up odometer mileage - I had to bring up the speedo meeter display using the lower two LHS switches
use the select rocker to then bring up message "service "A or B Due ect.." - using the upper right LHS switch to show the service interval display
press & hold the R button on left side of odometer on dash - This is the little round button sticking out of the display. You need to press it for about three seconds
message will show
DO YOU WANT TO RESET SERVICE INTERVAL - yes it does
PRESS "R" - and hold for three seconds as it says below
at this point hold in the "R" button for 3 seconds - yes need this
It then says service A due in 10,000 miles if you reset Service B - mine says 15000 for service A
ALL DONE! - very happy. thank you.
here is a picture of my steering wheel.- two big rocker buttons on each side
