If you are talking about the VTG (transfer case) oil wear code, there is an oil wear reset routine that need to be run on the ATC500 transfer case after any power divider fluid change.

As far as I know, only DIS, ISTA (-D or +) and the Foxwell tools will do this, plus maybe some other scan tools.

So you can either grab a copy of ISTA and a laptop and get that up and running (not too bad to do) or locate someone with one of the required tools who is prepared to do it for you. An indy shop might help out here.

If you get ISTA, you'll find the VTG Oil Wear functions here: -

Vehicle management -> Service functions -> Power train -> Transfer box transmission control unit -> Oil change
