Check Engine Light Reset

The proper reset of a check engine light on a 2020 Mercedes-Benz E-Class starts with a full diagnostic rather than simply clearing codes. Our factory-trained technicians at Mercedes-Benz of Lynnfield begin with a comprehensive scan to capture stored and pending codes, freeze-frame data, and live sensor readings. Resetting the light without identifying the root cause can hide an active fault and lead to recurring issues or missed warranty coverage. We use OEM diagnostic tools and genuine Mercedes-Benz parts so that any repair or reset maintains your vehicle's integrity and warranty protections. Transparency is central to our approach: you'll receive a clear explanation of the fault, the recommended repair, part options, and how doing the repair now can save you money over time by avoiding secondary damage and improving fuel economy. We also offer service financing to help you address necessary repairs immediately. Check our service specials and schedule service online to get a detailed assessment and safe, lasting reset from our certified team in Lynnfield, MA.
