Clearing SES light, I already know the problem

On saturday I was an idiot and cranked my car with the MAF sensor unplugged, and the SES light immediately came on. So I realized what it was, turned the car off, plugged the sensor back in, and re-cranked. The car was on with the sensor unplugged for maybe 10 seconds.

I guess once it threw the code, though, the SES light remains on even after the problem was corrected. Does anybody know if theres any way to clear out the SES light? Does the dealer have to do it or can I do it myself?

I know the problem was due to the MAF being unplugged, and since I quickly fixed the problem, so I'm just looking to get rid of the annoying amber light on my dash. Thanks!

OR.. you could go to autozone and get the guy to clear it for you. yes its illegal for them to do it, but most of the time they will do it for you.
