Possible to clear MFD errors (codes) without SDS?

While performing my latest mod, I ended up throwing a code (...visit workshop) on the MFD. Problem is completely resolved yet the error remains. Is there a way to clear the code without visiting the dealer? I tried disconnecting the battery for 30 minutes or so, but no joy.

Any thoughts?


p.s. Look for a new thread coming soon about the mod.

There's a second battery for memory! Damn...I wish I had a better answer. I don't know where it is. Good luck.

The second battery is at the engine bay, on the right at the front of the fire wall, below the AC filter.

But I doubt disconnecting the AUX battery would clear MFD codes. Which malfunction does it specifically throw? I'm afraid there is a current fault, not just a stored one. The MFD faults should not need clearing with SDS once the issues are fixed.
