    Here's an excerpt which answers your question. Click on the source link to read the entire post.

    This is how you find out why your Service Engine Soon (SES) light is on and how to reset it. No tools required!

    In car ECM Diagnostics/ECM Reset procedure:

    1) Sit in the driver's seat.
    2) Turn the ignition key to the ON position and wait three seconds. (Do not start the car.)
    3) Fully depress and release the accelerator pedal five times in less than five seconds.
    4) Wait exactly seven seconds. Fully depress the accelerator pedal for ten seconds until the SES light flashes.
    5) Release the accelerator pedal and start counting flashes to obtain the four-digit trouble code.
