Default reset check engine light?

I removed the 15A fuse for the DBW (drive-by wire) system when testing a fuse extension cable. I turned the ignition on to see if a fuse extension accessory cable was going to work. After that, I put the fuse back in an started the car. Ever since then the CHECK ENGINE light has been on.

Is there a way to reset it? I'm assuming it did that because I reset the computers reading by removing the fuse and turning the ignition on...

It'll probably also go away on it's own (since you put the fuse back in). That takes several driving cycles.
