I have not found one. There once was a post online stating it could be done by pressing and depressing the gas peddal and turning the ignition off and on in the right sequence. Tried it several times and it didn't work. AutoZone sometimes will do it for free. No harm in asking.
(Alternate method) This will work if there only was a temporary problem like a loose gas cap or whatever item that caused the problem was corrected:
1. Lift Hood and set brake for security.
2. Disconnect both positive and negative cables to the battery using a #10 open and closed end box wrench.
3. Since you did that you may as well clean the terminals (optional).
4. Reconnect the cables to the battery.
Re-start vehicle. Your clock and radio settings will need to be reset.
This method should clear only erroneous check engine lights. If light stayed on there is a larger issue that needs repair before engine or smog control damage. If the check engine light went out but after driving for 10 to 20 minutes the light came back on you can try the method one more time. If the light goes back on after that then there is a problem that will requires repair.
Many part stores or auto repair facilities will use their portable hand held computer to diagnose the problem. Depending upon the auto repair facility they may not charge you a fee but hope to get your business. It takes all of 10 minutes to do in the parking lot.
