Check Engine Light Reset

Resetting the check engine light on a 2020 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class CLS 450 may be straightforward in some cases, but relying on a reset without diagnosis risks masking an underlying fault that could cause expensive damage. At Mercedes-Benz of Lynnfield our approach is to diagnose before reset: we read and interpret stored OBD-II codes, verify live data, and perform targeted repairs using OEM parts. That transparency helps you avoid repeat trips and unexpected costs—providing immediate savings and preserving long-term reliability. Dealer-performed resets include documentation of the repair and any warranty coverage; remember, warranty work must be done at a certified dealership to remain valid. We also offer service financing to help you get necessary repairs done now and pay over time. Before you leave, we’ll test the charging system and battery to confirm any electrical faults are resolved.
