Not possible to disable sbc in star on car with adaptive brakes???

Hi I have mb star c4.
On the w211 E220, I am able to find the sbc menu in star.
However, this menu is not present on my w219 cls55 on the star computer??? Has anyone experienced this? As a result. I unplugged the sbc to do some cleaning of the caliper pistons. And now the cluster is red with sbc fault. I had to take out one of the pistons as it was a little bit harder to move than the others, and lost some brake fluid. However, I found it possible to bleed in the traditional way with sbc unit unplugged, as this bypasses the sbc unit.

Can anyone help?? I am completely stuck... need to clear the sbc fault.
thanks!

If the air is out of the system, A couple of starts/ key cycles should get you back to normal. The fault will be stored.
