On old cars (pre 1998) you can usually reset the light by unattaching the battery ground terminal and waiting 30 seconds and reattaching it. On anything newer, there is a code exclusive to the make of the car and unfortunately a dealer will have to give it to you or send it to your ecm (ECU) for you. Even auto body shops have to ask for this information from a dealer!
