Learn how to reset the service light on a Mercedes Citan: turn on the ignition and use the buttons on the steering wheel (indicator lights and "ok") to find the service option. It is usually located in the settings or on the instrument cluster.

Once you find the "service" option, press the "ok" button to enter the menu. You should see an option that says "confirm reset". Hold the "ok" button for 3 to 5 seconds until you see a confirmation message or the light turns off. Now, turn off the ignition and turn it back on. The service light should be gone.

If the light remains on, you may need to use a diagnostic tool connected to the EOBD port.
