I have two issues that I have been trying to cure on my '98 C280. The cruise control switch is broken and the steering wheel squeaks in cold weather. In order to repair both, the steering wheel must be removed. I tried a 5 foot cheater with no luck. My mistake was driving it with the air bag disconnected to purchase a butane torch. The torch and the cheater still didn't work, so I put it back together. However, the SRS light did not go off when the air bag was reconnected.

I have searched the forum, but do not see a method for resetting this light. Is this a dealer thing, or can you access the system through OBDII? I have a scan tool, but I don't see any SRS codes?

Ps: I actually did cure the squeak by blindly squirting in some WD 40 before I put the air bag back in.
