04 E320 SBC system making different noise

This all started with a lot of static on my AM stations. Two Forum members correctly suggested that I probably had exposed wires on one or more of the brake pad wear sensors. Upon inspection by my local shop I needed new rear pads and rotors but to keep everything balanced I decided to replace all rotors and pads front and back also new sensors all around. The system was flushed and new fluid used. The SBC system was disabled while the work was done for safety. The brakes feel fine, there are no messages on the dash screen but the SBC system is making some different sounds than it did before. My question is: Since my local shop does not have MB diagonisis capability should I take the car to the local MB dealer and have them reset the SBC or will it reset itself over time?
Thanks, Desert

I'll answer my own post....The problem is the SBC pump is now cycling quite often, I took it back to the shop where the brakes were done ( a good shop that has done brakes and AC work on my 85 280SL Euro) and they said they couldn't correct the pump problem, it would have to be done with the Mercedes Star computer so it goes into the MB shop Monday. Yes, I think I saved considerable money by having the brakes done at an independent shop but will have to wait until Monday to see what the cost will be for the SBC service at Mercedes to determine the overall cost. Right now I'm thinking if I had it to over again I would let Mercedes do the whole thing. Any comments?....Thanks, Desert
