sprinter maintenance reset

how do you reset the sprinter mb maintenance reminder? I do not have the steering wheel buttons. I have read the books but nothing says how to reset the miles. your spinter experience help is appreciated
  • First time, I found a garage that had the hand held computer that they attached to the plug under the dash and reset the mileage for me. Since then, I don't even bother. I just keep a small notebook with mileage and oil change info. I change the diesel oil and all filters myself.
  • Here's a text version of the same procedure:

    - Ignition on (don't start engine)
    - Wait for vehicle mileage to show
    - Hold "0" for 30+ seconds until beep
    - Cycle "M" until "rESET .51" appears
    - Hold "0" for 3+ seconds until "2" appears
    - Release "0" and press again, should say the reset is done
