Reset FSS Computer

I just changed the oil and all the filters on my 2004 E320 and need to erase the "Service G" notice from the FSS Computer. How do I reset the computer?
Thanks..

You probably did not try to search for this info. Anyway, you can download the instructions from Startekinfo, select "Reset Service indicator" from the menu and download the document for your model.

2004 FSS Reset

I found how to reset MB Service Indicator on <www.howtopdf.com/mercedes-benz-reset-service-indicator-guide>.
Step 2: Indicates to press either of the (Menu Buttons) repeatedly until the MILEAGE is displayed within the Multifunction display. I CAN NOT get the current mileage on the odometer to display as required. I have 59,7xx on the vehicle and the only mileage that constantly displays at the bottom of the Multifunction display is 5200.6. This maybe mileage since the last oil change and that would be about accurate. My only last recourse is to take it to my indy MB shop and I don't want to give in that easily.

In the middle of the same problem with my 2004 E-500:

Did the service a few months ago and never bothered to reset the reminder.
Now it says I exceeded G services with 56 days and a few hundred miles.
Got into the menu the other day and started hitting buttons, but the system won't budge...It won't reset and insists I exceeded the service limits..

Is there a point of no return where it will not reset without MB tools, OR should I go back to the menu and try again.?
