OK I've tried the how to from this forum and also from the manual... what do I do now to get my FFS to reset to 10,000? do I go to the delear now? 1999 SLK kompressor,

1: turn to position 2, after 4 seconds, push the 1st button once the remaning interval will show, after 10 sec. turn ot to position 0.

2: push and hold button 1, turn to position 2, the remaning interval will show again, after 10 sec. it will make a beep sound and 10,000 will show, release button 1.

sounds simple but not working what do I do?

Thanks!

2: Turn the key to position 2, push the button 1, service interval shows, turn the key to position 0

3: press and hold button 1, and turn the key to position 2, after 10 sec it will beep.

key to pos 2,within 4 sec press button twice, status displays, within 10 sec turn key to pos "0" press and hold button 1 while turning key back to pos 2, status displays , hold button 1, after 10 sec, beep, shows 10000 for 10 sec, release button 1, can only hope it works!

I struggled with this on my 230 slk. I found that when I turned the key back to position (0) push and hold buton 1 then turn key to (2) it had to be done very fast or the beep came after 5 secs and nothing reset.

OT. Strine

G'day cobber. I reckon ya don't unnerstand Strine. Cobber means "friend" or "pal" in Australian (aka 'strine).
This Australian English - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia explains it all!.

speed is the trick. if you're too slow, it beeps after 5 seconds. It took me a few tries, but it works.

Different procedure??

Strange. I just changed my oil and reset the FSS yesterday. It worked fine but the procedure in my manual was a bit different.
1. Start engine, immediately push button 1 twice to bring up the FSS display
2. Shut off engine and turn ignition to "0", then push and hold button 1
3. While holding button 1, within 10 seconds turn ignition to pos. 2 and hold button 1 until it beeps and shows "10,000."

I wonder if they changed the procedure as of a certain model year? Mine is a 2003.
