You can try disconnecting the battery for about 5+ minutes to see if that does it. If it doesn't, you will need a scanner to do it. Most nationally recognized parts stores will do it for free, so you may just want to go to one, ask them to scan the computer, and when they finish, ask them to reset it for you.

Also, resetting the computer will not hurt anything. If there is a problem that still exists, the light will eventually come back on.

Resetting it shouldn't change anything like. I believe you'll be fine.
