Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2015 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class may seem simple, but a reset without a proper diagnosis only masks the issue and risks further damage. At Mercedes-Benz of Lynnfield we explain when a reset is appropriate versus when a full diagnostic and repair are required. Our technicians use OEM diagnostic tools to clear codes only after confirming corrective action, ensuring the light does not return and that system readiness monitors reset correctly. We prioritize transparency: you receive a clear explanation of the underlying cause, an itemized estimate, and the advantages of OEM parts and factory procedures. Warranty protection requires certified dealership repairs, and we honor that responsibility with documented service records. Choosing our dealership delivers both immediate savings—through accurate repairs that eliminate repeat visits—and long-term value by preserving performance and resale price.
